As an example your block contains the following states (1) wall (2) roof (3) door (4) window (5) floor
type "o" would show (2) roof (3) door (4) window (5) floor -] type "oo" would show (2) roof (3) door (5) floor -] type "oor" would show (3) door (5) floor -] then if you clicked in front of the "oor" and typed door it would show only states containing the word "door"

In the mean time, you could build a cascading menu for selecting a visibility state with a Block Properties Table and a user parameter or two.
