# 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.
