How do I make a TextBox CaptureFocus() when i click on it?
I wanna use MouseButton1Down so how do i do it?
This is what i've tried in a LocalScript but it didn't work:
1 | local Mouse = game.Players.LocalPlayer:GetMouse() |
2 |
3 | Mouse.MouseButton1Down:connect(function(Key) |
4 | script.Parent:CaptureFocus() |
5 | end) |

Forgot to mention that the LocalScript is a child of the TextBox Cesire 45 — 9y

Are you trying to use a SurfaceGui or a BillBoardGui? M39a9am3R 3210 — 9y

Ok, so there answer above has no problem in it just that he didn't add the :Capture Focus Function in there.... So just do this following code inside of a Local Scriptunder the TextBox...
1 | local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer |
2 | local mouse = player:GetMouse() |
3 |
4 | mouse.KeyDown:connect(function() |
5 | script.Parent:CaptureFocus() |
6 | end |

I think it's your studio because my script should work -_- I just now checked it and make sure your TextBox is under a ScreenGui or SurfaceGui please.... KingLoneCat 2642 — 9y

It's easy to use... You can do..... game.Workspace.Gui.Adornee = game.Workspace.Baseplate This means that the Gui will be on the baseplate KingLoneCat 2642 — 9y

MouseButton1Down is an event of GUIs. This means you can only use it on TextButtons and ImageButtons (with the event firing when the gui is clicked).
mouse has a separate event, which is just Button1Down. You can use that.
1 | local mouse = game.Players.LocalPlayer:GetMouse() |
2 |
3 | mouse.Button1Down:connect(function() |
4 | print("clicked") |
5 | end) |

Ok I got it to work, you never told me the localscript had to be in StarterGui LOL :D
1 | --Adornee is set to "Test" a part in game.Workspace |
2 |
3 |
4 | local mouse = game.Players.LocalPlayer:GetMouse() |
5 | mouse.Button1Down:connect(function() |
6 | if mouse.Target == "Test" then |
7 | script.Parent:CaptureFocus() |
8 | end |
