You have the option of making MATLAB® visible or not by
setting the Visible property. When visible, MATLAB appears
on the desktop, enabling the user to interact with it. This might
be useful for such purposes as debugging. When not visible, the MATLAB window
does not appear, thus perhaps making for a cleaner interface and also
preventing any interaction with the application.
By default, the Visible property is enabled,
or set to 1. You can change the Visible property
by setting it to 0 (invisible) or 1 (visible).
