This example toggles the visibility of myWindow.

        if ( DGS:dgsGetVisible ( myWindow ) == true ) then -- check if the dgs element is visible               
                DGS:dgsSetVisible ( myWindow, false ) -- if it is, we hide it
        else              
                DGS:dgsSetVisible ( myWindow, true ) -- if not, we make it visible
        end
end
