hello. So, I created a script that causes a message to appear on the screen when a player touches a cloud. In the cloud there are 7 parts so I activated each one to the function The problem is that if a player clicks on the message, he can edit it (the text is in a TextBox) I could put it in a textLabel calmly, but the message is very large and the Text Label does not have the MultLine option for that i know


parte1 = script.Parent.Cloud1
parte2 = script.Parent.Cloud2
parte3 = script.Parent.Cloud3
parte4 = script.Parent.Cloud4
parte5 = script.Parent.Cloud5
parte6 = script.Parent.Cloud6
parte7 = script.Parent.Cloud7

texto = game.StarterGui.ScreenGui.TextBox

function toque()
    while true do
            wait(0.1)
            texto.TextTransparency = 0
            texto.BackgroundTransparency = 0

            wait(7.35)
            texto.TextTransparency = 1
            texto.BackgroundTransparency = 1
            wait(0.4)
            break
        end
end

parte1.Touched:Connect(toque)
parte2.Touched:Connect(toque)
parte3.Touched:Connect(toque)
parte4.Touched:Connect(toque)
parte5.Touched:Connect(toque)
parte6.Touched:Connect(toque)
parte7.Touched:Connect(toque)

Try using a TextButton instead of a textbox. A textbutton's text can only be changed through a script or so, while a player can type in a Textbox Dylan011444 59 — 4y

The reason people can edit the text is because it is a textbox. Textboxs allow people to type into them. You should be using a textlabel instead.

Can you show me what you want the text in the textbox to look like and how it looks like inside a text label?

EDIT:

To have multiple lines on a text label, put a script directly inside of your gui: \n lets the game know you want to create a new line

local textLabel = script.Parent.TextLabel --change this to be the location of your text label

textLabel.Text = "and\nwe have multiple\nlines"

--[[

text will show as:

        and
    we have multiple 
        lines

if you want it to display from the right, set the label's textxallignment to be right.

the text in the textBox has 5 lines, but if I put it in the textLabel it is just straight because the textlabel does not have a MultLine function (to have more than one line to write) lytew 99 — 4y

i'll check that out in a few minutes. im pretty sure you can avoid this by adding a \n in the string to indicate a new line it would be helpful having pictures like i said. if you want to talk on discord for quicker communication, hmu @ Lucy#0003  royaltoe 5144 — 4y

Yeah, \n does the trick. I'll edit my post to reflect that royaltoe 5144 — 4y
