Finding Invisible Timer Objects

If you set the value of a timer object's ObjectVisibility property to 'off', the timer object does not appear in listings of existing timer objects returned by timerfind. The ObjectVisibility property provides a way for application developers to prevent end-user access to the timer objects created by their application.

Objects that are not visible are still valid. If you have access to the object (for example, from within the M-file that created it), you can set its properties. To retrieve a list of all the timer objects in memory, including invisible ones, use the timerfindall function.
