Hello, my name is chronofantastic and i'd like to ask how would i make it so a player sees a gui or textlabel within the gui? Here is my short code, please dont be rude to me or unkind.
local gui = game.Players.LocalPlayer.PlayerGui
gui = game:GetService("Players").LocalPlayer.PlayerGui
gui.Info1.SecA.Visible = true
I know it isnt much, but please dont be mean to me as this is my first question asked.
Hello! Thanks for joining the community.
To do what you are asking, simply use a Hint, which is small text box GUI that appears at the top of the screen:
function showMessage(player, text, duration)
game.Players:WaitForChild(player)
local hint = Instance.new("Hint")
game.Players[player]:WaitForChild("PlayerGui")
hint.Parent = game.Players[player].PlayerGui
hint.Text = text
wait(duration)
hint:Destroy()
end
Usage:
showMessage("ChronoFantastic", "Congrats on your first question!", 5)
If you want a ScreenGui instead, I can show that way too. Just tell me and I will edit this answer. But this is way simpler!
Hint’s are deprecated.
Not sure but I think he wants to show specific already created gui with some text, idk
^ Yes, its true what kiriot22 just said.
Its also in the workspace.
I didnt mean a hint, but it works, so its accepted!
Thanks!

Don't worry, we won't be mean. :)
Where is this script located? Is it in the player, or in the Workspace? I need to know that to be able to respond.
