How do I transfer the text from TextBox to TextLabel?
Okay, so I have a TextBox that the player has to enter text into. And then that text will appear on a TextLabel that the player cannot edit. I thought it was just gonna be something simple.. for example
1 | script.Parent.Text = (script.Parent.Parent.TextBox.Text) |
is there a way I can make this work?

So pretty much what @bittersweetfate did, except put it into a local script:
1 | while wait(0.5) do |
2 | script.Parent.Text = script.Parent.Parent.TextBox.Text |
3 | end |
Just put that code into a local script, and you're done!

Just basically do what the above said and maybe have and event that fires everytime the text is changed
On a localscript
1 | textgui = script.Parent.Text |
2 | texbox = script.Parent.Parent.TextBox |
3 |
4 | textbox.GetPropertyChangedSignal("Text"):Connect(function() |
5 | -- code |
6 | end) |
