Help with fixing problem involving :TweenPosition()?

Asked by

So, I have a Menu Gui basically with several buttons on the menu. What I want to happen is, I want the buttons to slide out when the mouse hovers over it, and go back in place when the mouse leaves the button.

However, as I have several buttons, I don't want to input the button Position for each button. I attempted to create a function to solve this, and it somewhat works. However, when it happens multiple times it starts moving off the intended location.

Here's what happens: http://i.imgur.com/aYwrnD7.gifv

If you could, please explain to me what the problem is and what I can do to fix it?

The problem is that you are adding on to the current position when tweening.

Instead, tween to predefined locations. At the top of the script, set local defaultPosition = button.Position and local hoverPosition = defaultPosition + UDim2.new(0.5, 0, 0, 0) and then tween to defaultPosition in moveOut and hoverPosition in moveIn

Aye, this works, but I have multiple buttons. I was trying to avoid writing variables for all the button's position and have it done in a function . SketchTitan 40 — 8y

That is why it is based on the buttons default position. The script should be reusable, either with completely new scripts or in a for loop. SwardGames 325 — 8y
