My script won't work when I try to change the visibility property of a text box. Help?
So when I used this script, the text box named text1 appears and stays on the screen. I can't get it to go away or show text2. Here's the script I used:
local text1 = game.StarterGui.ScreenGui.text1 local text2 = game.StarterGui.ScreenGui.text2
text1.Visible = true wait(3) text1.Visible = false wait(2) text2.Visible = true wait(3) text2.Visible = false
*Note - I'm a beginner, so I probably missed something obvious.

The script didn't appear on the question how I wanted it to, but you get the idea. happygirl29922 -3 — 6y

StarterGui hold all the guis that'll be replicated to the player's PlayerGui. What the player sees on their screen are descendants of their PlayerGui. Instead use this script:
local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local pgui = player:WaitForChild('PlayerGui')
local sgui = pgui:WaitForChild('ScreenGui')
local text1 = sgui:WaitForChild('text1')
local text2 = sgui:WaitForChild('text2')
text1.Visible = true
wait(3)
text1.Visible = false
wait(2)
text2.Visible = true
wait(3)
text2.Visible = false
Also, to make your code look better, please use a codeblock. If this was helpful, please accept this answer.
