Variable: .visible
Counterpart: dgsGetVisible

Required Arguments

  • dgsElement: the DGS element whose visibility is to be changed
  • state: the new visibility state

Returns true if the element's visibility could be changed, false otherwise.

Example

This example creates a dgs window and changes its visibility every 2 seconds, infinite times.

DGS = exports.dgs

function changeVisibility ( )
	-- we check if the dgs element is visible
	DGS:dgsSetVisible (myWindow, not DGS:dgsGetVisible ( myWindow ) )
end

--Create a dgs window called 'myWindow'
myWindow = DGS:dgsCreateWindow ( 0.3, 0.3, 0.5, 0.60, "DGS window title", true )
--Set a timer to change the window's visibility every 2 seconds, infinite times
setTimer ( changeVisibility, 2000, 0 )

This example creates a dgs window with yes and no buttons and make it visible/invisible with the bindkey 'x'.
