This should do the trick as long as your web part inherits from CMSAbstractWebPart

if(Visible)
{

}

The other option is to simply use the StopProcessing property:

protected void SetupControl()
{
    if (this.StopProcessing)
    {
        // Do not process
    }
    else
    {
        // Continue on
    }
}

GetValue("Visible"); should do this. It will return an object, so you will need to cast it to bool. You could use ValidationHelper class for casting.

Sorry,but i have to clarify that the question is how to get the visibility of a property that were associated to a a webpart, not the visibility of a web part.

Thanks

Visibility of a property associated to the webpart? I'm confused.

Are you wanting to get a property of a different webpart while in another webpart? Or maybe in the page, you want to check a property on a webpart?

Hi,

Do you mean the visibility property of a (custom) property of the webpart?

Like:

list webpart > title field > visibilty

If so you might be able to extract this info using WebPartInfoProvider. You can have a look at the API samples here: https://docs.kentico.com/display/API9/Web+parts#Webparts-Updatingawebpart

Greets,

David
