How Do I Make A GUI Visible Only If Mouse Is Hovering Over An Object?

Asked 221 views1 answers

I made a door model with a clickdetector. I Gui I made Gui labels and then put in this localscript

local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local gui = player:WaitForChild("PlayerGui")
local screenGui = gui:WaitForChild("KeyE")
local imageLabel = screenGui:WaitForChild("EButton")

local clickdetector = game.workspace.Door:WaitForChild("ClickDetector")

screenGui.Enabled = false

clickdetector.MouseHoverEnter:connect(function()
	screenGui.Enabled = true
end)

When I hover over the the model, it makes the gui visible.. when it is not hovering, it does not go away... how do I do this thank you.

--I wish to make the gui pop up when my mouse is hovering over the model and disappear when it is not. Thank you

You’ll have to use an event called “MouseHoverLeave” if you want the GUI to be disabled when the player hovers away.

Here’s your fixed script. I added the function in so it should work :

local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local gui = player:WaitForChild("PlayerGui")
local screenGui = gui:WaitForChild("KeyE")
local imageLabel = screenGui:WaitForChild("EButton")

local clickdetector = game.Workspace.Door:WaitForChild("ClickDetector")

screenGui.Enabled = false

clickdetector.MouseHoverEnter:Connect(function()
    screenGui.Enabled = true
end)

clickdetector.MouseHoverLeave:Connect(function()
    screenGui.Enabled = false
end)
