BarProp.visible

The visible read-only property of the BarProp interface returns true if the user interface element it represents is visible.

Value

A Boolean, which is true if the top-level window is opened by window.open with the requesting a popup window.popup_feature.

Note: Historically this represented whether the interface element used is visible or not. But for privacy reasons, this no longer represents the actual visibility of each interface element.

Examples

The following example prints true to the console if the window is not a popup.

console.log(window.locationbar.visible);
