Returns or sets the visible setting for the word balloon for the specified character.
agent.Characters ("CharacterID").Balloon.Visible [=boolean]
| Part | Description |
| boolean | A Boolean expression specifying whether the word balloon is visible. True The balloon is visible. False The balloon is hidden. |
If you attempt to set this property while the character is speaking, moving, or being dragged, the property setting does not take effect until the preceding operation is completed. Calling the Speak method automatically makes the balloon visible, setting the Visible property to True. If the character's balloon AutoHide property is enabled, the balloon is automatically hidden after the output text is spoken. Clicking or dragging a character that is not currently speaking also automatically hides the balloon even if its AutoHide property is disabled. (A character's word-balloon AutoHide property can only be set in the Microsoft Agent Character Editor. The property is not exposed in the API.)
