I've been wondering about window visibility as well... and from the research i've done over the last few days it seems like they (SOE) have never added in a convenient way to do this.
the work around is to put a show.window command in to another window that the client does automatically open in the OnShow object. The other caveat is that you must put it in to a window that receives dynamic data updates.
for example, I chose the player window, since it is almost always receiving constant data updates, so when that window is "shown" by the client, then the OnShow event triggers and it will then open up the window you want.
I really don't understand why Sony hasn't added in a simple property that allows us to make new windows and allow them to be visible by default. it wouldn't be that hard IMO.
