Parameters
Window Title
Specifies the title (caption) of the Window you wish to unhide (make visible). The title of a window is located on the top left of the title bar of that window. For example, if Notepad is launched without a document, its caption is "Notepad - Untitled" (without the quotes).For convenience, a drop down list of currently open Windows is available to quickly and accurately select the desired Window title.
Don't display hidden windows in the Windows Title Bar List
When checked this option causes the Window list to only display "visible" windows. When unchecked all window's that are open on the system are displayed - even "system windows" that you normally can't see. Unchecking this option is useful is you wish to select the main window of a system tray based application.Window title must match exactly
Specified whether the Windows title entered is a partial title match or must match exactly. When unchecked, AutoMate will search for window titles that contain that text. This option is useful if you are dealing with a window title that may change depending on the document that is open -- for example: Microsoft Internet Explorer also displays the currently open web page. If you didn't care what page was open but you still wanted to specify the Internet Explorer window you would uncheck this option and enter "Microsoft Internet Explorer". If a window was found on the system with that text contained in the title it would be successful regardless of what comes before or after that text.
Notes
A window that is hidden and/or has its visible property set to false. The window specified must be open on the system but not visible. You should only need to use this command to Unhide windows you have previously hidden using the hide action, all other windows that are hidden are probably set that way for a reason.
