Changes | The ability to use QuickTime special effects was introduced in version 1.1. In previous versions, only the built-in visual effects listed under the visual effect command were available. The use of QuickTime was deprecated in version 8.1 of LiveCode with new defaults for dontUseQT and dontUseQTEffects as true on all systems apart from pre OS X 10.8. The Windows build of LiveCode no longer supports any QuickTime features and setting the dontUseQT and dontUseQTEffects will have no effect. Additionally QuickTime does not include 64 bit support and therefore can not be supported on OS X 64 bit builds of LiveCode. | |||||||||||||||

Description | Use the show command to show invisible objects. Showing an object sets its visible property to true. You can also set the showInvisibles property to true to override the visible property and show all objects. You can show a card without causing a script error, but doing so has no effect. Showing a group shows all the controls in the group whose visible property is true. | |||||||||||||||
