ACTION
The function HIDE(N) returns 1 if the system object designated by its number N is hidden.
By default, the state of a system object is "visible". A system object can be hidden by the command HIDE and made visible again by the command SHOW.
Remark 1: Another function SHOW(N) returns 1 if the system object designated by its number N is visible.
Remark 2: The function cannot be called for the system objects : MAIN_MENU, SUB_MENU, SOUND, OPEN_DIALOG, SAVE_DIALOG, DLIST, TIMER, MAIN_MENU_POP, OPEN_DIALOG_PIC, SAVE_DIALOG_PIC, SERIAL, IMAGE, TAB. The functions HIDE(N) or SHOW(N) trigger an error if applied to these system objects.
