My understanding of the terms "intentionally display" goes from all the way from "flashing" see here I have a gun to all the way Un holster and produce the gun at low ready or to his side. Pointing to the ground WHEN said act of producing a gun is unjustified under the law. If there is justification of force, then threat of deadly force is just force.

You have the right to intentionally display. When you do the gun must be in a belt or shoulder holster and the display can not be with calculation to cause alarm. If the guns are not in a belt or shoulder holster you can not intentionally display. It's as simple as that.

No because visibility is independent of clothing. If you wear a sheer tee shirt then you haven't really concealed the gun have you? The gun is either physically covered or it is not. Printing is a non issue. As I stated earlier the only requirement is that the gun can not be visibly, physically displayed in whole or in part if you are carrying under the rules of concealment. It does not matter that someone can tell you are carrying a go as long as it is not displayed.

If open carrying you may intentionally display if in a belt or shoulder holster and you do so with no calculation to cause alarm.
