My Textbutton GUI isn't changing text or transparency?
Hey everyone, I'm trying to make the text in my textbutton gui change transparency and change the message, but the script I wrote isn't working at all. I have no idea what is going wrong and it seems like it should work, but it isn't... any reason why? Script:
01 | local textbox = script.Parent |
02 |
03 | wait(5) |
04 |
05 | for i = 1,10 do |
06 | wait(0.1) |
07 | textbox.TextTransparency = textbox.TextTransparency + 0.1 |
08 | end |
09 | textbox.Text = "(new text)" |
10 | for i = 1,10 do |
11 | wait(0.1) |
12 | textbox.TextTransparency = textbox.TextTransparency - 0.1 |
13 | end |
14 | wait(5) |

Also, under starter GUI, the hierarchy is ScreenGUI > TextBox > LocalScript thinknoodlesmine 9 — 5y

I put the code in a codeblock. It is expect that you do this yourself next time https://forum.scriptinghelpers.org/topic/82/how-to-format-questions-answers-on-the-main-site User#24403 69 — 5y

Why do you have arbitrary wait calls at line 3 and 14? User#24403 69 — 5y

So the user has time to read the text on the screen before it changes thinknoodlesmine 9 — 5y

This code annoys me so much. I normally use for i = 1,10,1 do also, i subtract the transparency by .01 for a smoother transition... greatneil80 2647 — 5y

reads a few lines and finds the error. TextTransparency isn't a valid property of Text UI Objects. remove the word text and your issue is solved.
01 | local textbox = script.Parent |
02 |
03 | wait(5) |
04 |
05 | for i = 1, 10 do |
06 | wait(0.1) |
07 | textbox.Transparency = textbox.Transparency + 0.1 |
08 | end |
09 | textbox.Text = "(new text)" |
10 | for i = 1, 10 do |
11 | wait(0.1) |
12 | textbox.Transparency = textbox.Transparency - 0.1 |
13 | end |
14 |
15 | wait(5) |
Unless, your trying to connect to another text child inside explorer, this should work.
