showInvisibles

Type

property

Summary

Specifies whether invisible objects are shown anyway.

Syntax

set the showInvisibles to {true | false}

Description

Use the showInvisibles property to override the visible property of objects and see all the objects on a card.

Showing all invisible objects can make it easier to find a lost control, but can also make a layout confusing.

Invisible objects that are temporarily shown with the showInvisibles property respond to mouse clicks and key presses as though they were visible.

Examples

set the showInvisibles to true

Value
