### **Example: Checking Whether a UI Element Is Hidden**

In this example, we are explaining how to verify whether a captured UI element is hidden on the screen.

* **Action**: verifyHidden
* **Input Value**: N/A
  * This action does not require any input value. It verifies whether the captured UI element is hidden within the application.
* **Output Value**: {Status}
  * The verification result is stored in the **{Status}** dynamic variable with the following possible values:
    * **True**: If the UI element is hidden.
    * **False**: If the UI element is visible on screen.
* **Logical Explanation**: The **verifyHidden** action does not require any input value. The action checks the visibility state of the captured UI element in the application under test and determines whether it is hidden. The verification result (**True**) is stored in the **{Status}** variable.
