How can I reference items StarterGui?
So I want to be able to reference an image label but it's not working. Someone help.
Here is my code:
local imageLabel = game.StarterGui.ScreenGui.ImageLabel
local UserInputSerivce = game:GetService("UserInputService")
UserInputSerivce.InputBegan:Connect(function(input)
if input.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.M then
imageLabel.Visible = true
end
end)

Note: StarterGui waits until a player joins, clones all of its contents, and moves all the cloned UI objects to the PlayerGui in the player object(This applies to all players in the server).
Insert a LocalScript into StarterPlayerScripts located in StarterPlayer.
In the script, write the following code:
local UserInputService = game:GetService("UserInputService") -- getting UserInputService
local playerGui = game.Players.LocalPlayer.PlayerGui -- defining PlayerGui
local imageLabel = playerGui:WaitForChild("ScreenGui"):WaitForChild("ImageLabel") -- make sure to define your ImageLabel because I don't know what your GUI hierarchy looks like. Just keep doing :WaitForChild() until you reach ImageLabel
UserInputService.InputBegan:Connect(function(input, gameProcessedEvent)
-- gameProcessedEvent is basically used to check to see if the player is interferring with the engine EXAMPLE: The chat
if input.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.M and not gameProcessedEvent then -- checks whether the player chatting
imageLabel.Visible = true
end
end)
