Setting a .visible for a GUI is not working, how do I do it?

Asked by

I'm trying to create a store GUI and I really need the .visible to work.

MainBack.HatsButton.MouseButton1Down:connect(function()
MainBack.Visible = false
Hats.Visible = true

When I click the button (ImageButton) it doesn't do anything. It is very essential that it works.

Could you post the entirety of the script? nicemike40 486 — 8y

Fixed Code:

local Store = game.StarterGui.Store
 -- Don't use parent just put the gui in StarterGUI
local MainBack = Store.MainBack
local Trails = Store.Trails
local Hats = Store.Hats
local Guns = Store.Guns

MainBack.HatsButton.MouseButton1Click:connect(function() -- Use MouseButton1Click
MainBack.Visible = false
Hats.Visible = true 

end)

If i'm correct this would work, if it does please accept this answer.

This would not work though, as you are changing the visibility in StarterGui, meaning anyone who joins the game now sees the new visibility. FrostTaco 90 — 8y

First, THIS IS A LOCAL SCRIPT DO NOT USE A REGULAR SCRIPT. Second, we need to see your variables! Here is a example, and make HatsButton a TextButton

local debounce = false
local MainBack = game.Players.LocalPlayer.StarterGui
function Open()
    if debounce = false then --Means this will not run multiple times at once, as it is not nessasary.
        local debounce = true
        MainBack.Visible = false
        Hats.Visible = true
        local debounce = false --makes the function usable again now
    end
end

MainBack.HatsButton.MouseButton1Click:connect(Open) --does the function we just made

Sure,

--Start of shop script
local Store = game.StarterGui.Store
Store.Parent = PlayerGui
local MainBack = Store.MainBack
local Trails = Store.Trails
local Hats = Store.Hats
local Guns = Store.Guns

MainBack.HatsButton.MouseButton1Down:connect(function()
MainBack.Visible = false
Hats.Visible = true 

end)
