How to Change the Text in a TextBox?
I am working with SurfaceGuis. I have a TextBox as part of the SurfaceGuis, and the SuraceGui is in the starter Gui, thus allowing the player to change the data in the text field. It changes it on the screen, and changes the text value to be the new thing, but when I try to run a function based on it, it's not working. If I make the function work when the text is blank, it works fine. If I make it, let's say "Test" and type in "Test" as the player, it doesn't work. If anyone knows how to make it register the fact that a player typed in the box, please tell me.

So you want it on the screen correct? Or on a block?

It's all set up and everything, works fine. When you click on the TextBox, you can type in new values, and it shows the new values, just doesn't seem to register them. Not sure why. Vescatur 95 — 10y

Well don't put a surface gui in the starter gui. Make a screen gui and put it in the starter gui. If you want the surface gui, put the surface gui inside a part/block. mnaj22 44 — 10y

@mnaj Putting a SurfaceGui into the PlayerGui localizes it though. TheGuyWithAShortName 673 — 10y
