Description

Gets the visible state of an object.

If a parent of a frame calls Hide(), then all of it's children are hidden. In this case, it's children are "visible", but not "shown".

The default UI uses this in a couple of places to tell whether or not the entire UI has been hidden for screenshot purposes (visible is true, but shown isn't)
