Returns [code]true[/code] if the node is present in the [SceneTree], its [member visible] property is [code]true[/code] and all its ancestors are also visible. If any ancestor is hidden, this node will not be visible in the scene tree, and is therefore not drawn (see [method _draw]).
Visibility is checked only in parent nodes that inherit from [CanvasItem], [CanvasLayer], and [Window]. If the parent is of any other type (such as [Node], [AnimationPlayer], or [Node3D]), it is assumed to be visible.
[b]Note:[/b] This method does not take [member visibility_layer] into account, so even if this method returns [code]true[/code] the node might end up not being rendered.

If [code]true[/code], this [CanvasItem] is drawn. The node is only visible if all of its ancestors are visible as well (in other words, [method is_visible_in_tree] must return [code]true[/code]).
If [code]true[/code], this [CanvasItem] may be drawn. Whether this [CanvasItem] is actually drawn depends on the visibility of all of its [CanvasItem] ancestors. In other words: this [CanvasItem] will be drawn when [method is_visible_in_tree] returns [code]true[/code] and all [CanvasItem] ancestors share at least one [member visibility_layer] with this [CanvasItem].
[b]Note:[/b] For controls that inherit [Popup], the correct way to make them visible is to call one of the multiple [code]popup*()[/code] functions instead.

Emitted when the visibility (hidden/visible) changes.
Emitted when the [CanvasItem]'s visibility changes, either because its own [member visible] property changed or because the visility of one of its [CanvasItem] ancestors changed (equivalent to a change in [method is_visible_in_tree]).
