Line of sight is conspicuously absent from the Basic Rules in any context.So technically, "peeking out" doesn't end your hidden state unless you approach the creature, and then only probably.You can't attempt to hide again if they can see you, but that's a different thing.I have a feeling that the designers left this vague so the DM can rule whatever seems logical at the moment, and also to avoid any exploitation by players who like to quote rules. As such, I'm actually somewhat pessimistic about any clarification ever appearing.In the end, the middle ground is probably the most in following with the spirit of the rules.</blockquote>
