Hi Jack,
> What's the exactly difference between "Visible" and "VisibleOnScreen"?
As per TC help: Visible property is True if the object is visible to users, otherwise False. VisibleOnScreen property is True if any part of the object is currently visible on screen, otherwise False.
So, the VisibleOnScreen will be True only if the object is drawn on the screen, is visible and is not overlapped by any other one (e.g. if the target object is overlapped by TC's spy tool window then its (target object's) VisibleOnScreen will be False).
The Visible is True if object supposed to be drawn on the screen but may be not visible at the moment for example because the part of the window with this object is moved out of the screen boundaries.
Does the above make things more clear?
