To check the property value of an object, the object must exist. If an error occurs when verifying the property value "Visible" or "VisibleOnScreen", then most likely it's relating to the object Aliases.browser.pageDashboard.headerRelatedMessages not existing. 

 

At the point the object is "humanly invisible", Object Browser should show that particular object as being greyed out.
