Hi. I am learning Phaser 3 by playing around some examples. I failed to make scene to invisible by using setVisible(false). When checking the isVisible status, the value is “false”, but I can still see the scene with my eyes. What was wrong with my codes? Please help me. ```javascript Phaser 3 example ``` ---

It’s because start/launch are queued and the scene is made visible again once they occur. You can hide them in their own `init()` methods or do ```javascript this.scene.start('sceneA'); this.scene.get('sceneA').events.once('start', () => { this.scene.setVisible(false, 'sceneA'); }); ``` ---

Hi Samme, Thank you for your advice. It works. 😀
