In instance proxies objects can be made invisible, which generally means non-interactive. However, the voltmeter will still read over objects as though they were still there. The image below shows this with the capacitor set to invisible:

(ignore the black background and white text nodes on the right, as that is a computer specific issue)

It is not important for this to be fixed for phetsims/phet-io-wrappers#49 but should be revisited at the next phet-io design meeting.

additionally the voltmeter can be put away even if the toolbox is not visible

If we're hiding view elements, that would presumably not affect the model (so the voltmeter reading objects makes sense). We'd want to provide more explicit support for this type of thing.
