Frame - The appearing widget.

Description

• The OnShow event is called when a hidden frame is about to become visible on screen.
• Normally requires the frame to have previously been hidden; i.e. repeated calls to Region:Show() are ignored.
• However, if a frame is defined in XML then OnShow also fires after OnLoad unless hidden at the time.
