Why isn't the clickdetector work for the GUI's?
I'm doing clickdetector and when it clicked the 3 GUI'S would disappear, but the game says the script is fine, even when I clicked the "Start" GUI it doesn't turn the GUI'S transparent.
1 | local clickdetector = script.Parent:WaitForChild("ClickDetector") |
2 |
3 | clickdetector.MouseClick:Connect(function() |
4 | game.StarterGui.ScreenGui.ImageLabel.ImageTransparency = 1 |
5 | game.StarterGui.ScreenGui.ImageLabel.BackgroundTransparency = 1 |
6 | game.StarterGui.ScreenGui.TextLabel.TextTransparency = 1 |
7 | game.StarterGui.ScreenGui.TextButton.TextTransparency = 1 |
8 |
9 | end) |

A ClickDetector is an Object designed to integrate cursor related features into a BasePart, and a BasePart only.
There are already existing RBXScriptSignals designed specifically for GUIButton click-events, and these are to be only used for it's base-class too. The signal you are looking for is .MouseButton1Click.
There is one final issue with your code, you're referencing the wrong UI. StarterGui is merely a background replication container meant to transfer the UI descendants into each unique user. The authentic User Interface that correlates to GUIs on-screen are located under a local folder within the Player, called PlayerGui. To make live adjustments, you must reference this folder instead:
01 | local Player = game:GetService("Players").LocalPlayer |
02 |
03 | local PlayerGui = Player:WaitForChild("PlayerGui") |
04 | local ScreenGui = PlayerGui:WaitForChild("ScreenGui") |
05 |
06 | local Button = script.Parent |
07 |
08 | local function SetInvisible() |
09 | --[[ Iterates through all Instance within our ScreenGui |
10 | to apply visibility modification |
11 | ]] |
12 | for _,Gui in pairs(ScreenGui:GetChildren()) do |
13 | if (Gui:IsA("GuiObject")) then |
14 | Gui.Visible = false --// Simplifies setting transparency |
15 | end |
16 | end |
17 | end |
18 |
19 | Button.MouseButton1Click:Connect(SetInvisible) |

You don't use clickdetector for guis, you use textbutton or imagebutton. To script, you would do this:
1 | script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function() |
2 | script.Parent.ImageLabel.ImageTransparency = 1 |
3 | script.Parent.ImageLabel.BackgroundTransparency = 1 |
4 | script.Parent.ScreenGui.TextLabel.TextTransparency = 1 |
5 | script.Parent.TextButton.TextTransparency = 1 |
6 | end) |
For your information, I scripted this assuming that your heirarchy is startergui -> ScreenGui -> Text/ImageButton -> script

Well, I used this code in my game, and it works just fine. Try this.
1 | -- edit this line to wherever the gui is |
2 | script.Parent.Activated:Connect(function() |
3 | -- edit this line to wherever the gui is |
4 | game.StarterGui.ScreenGui.ImageLabel.ImageTransparency = 1 |
5 | game.StarterGui.ScreenGui.ImageLabel.BackgroundTransparency = 1 |
6 | game.StarterGui.ScreenGui.TextLabel.TextTransparency = 1 |
7 | game.StarterGui.ScreenGui.TextButton.TextTransparency = 1 |
8 |
9 | end) |
Just so you know, this script is only possible if the thing you wanna click is a TextButton.
