Hiding Matrix row headers

I have created an income statement using a Matrix visual.  I have created 5 measures named 1-5.  Each measure uses the blank() function.  Example:  1=blank().  This allows me to insert blank rows in my Matrix visual to make the income statement more readable.  However, I cannot hide the row headers so that the user cannot see them.  Any ideas?  Thank you.

    Try this:

    1. Create measues:  

    1 = blank()
    2 = blank()
    etc.
     
    2. Add measures to your matrix where you want a blank line:
     

     

     3. Use field formatting to make foreground and background white for your new measures;
     

    It should look like this:

    Anonymous in field formatting you can change the foreground and background color the same to hide the header.

      Thanks for the feedback parry2k.  I assume when you say foreground color you are referring to font color.  Under field formatting, I have the font color and the background color both set to white. This hides the values but not the row header.  I need to hide both.  Here is screen shot of what matrix row headers look like today:
