Description

The default value of a view added to a window is "undefined". This is not a regression. The behavior exists as far as 1.8.2 Steps to reproduce: 1. Create an application with code below and launch the application 2. Click on Show/Hide button Actual: An alert with value "undefined" is shown which is the value of visible property of view. Expected: The value should be returned as "true"

var _window = Ti.UI.createWindow({
		backgroundColor:'white'
		});

		var view = Ti.UI.createView({
			backgroundColor:'red',
			width:100,
			height:100,
			top:20
		});
		_window.add(view);
		
		var b = Ti.UI.createButton({
			title:'Show/hide',
			width:140,
			height:40,
			top:160
		});
		
		b.addEventListener('click', function() {
			alert('Visible: '+view.visible);
			if (view.visible) {
				view.hide();
			}
			else {
				view.show();
			}
		});
		_window.add(b);
		_window.open();
