Button not deactivating inside Button.Click()

Here is a very simple plugin, I am attempting to deactivate not disable the plugin button inside the PluginToolbarButton.Click() event, however it is not working, instead nothing is disabled.

local toolbar : PluginToolbar = plugin:CreateToolbar("awef")

local firstButton : PluginToolbarButton = toolbar:CreateButton("hello","","","hello")
local secondButton : PluginToolbarButton = toolbar:CreateButton("second","","","second")

local widgetInfo = DockWidgetPluginGuiInfo.new(
	Enum.InitialDockState.Float,
	false,
	false,
	300,
	228,
	300,
	228
)

local widget

firstButton.Click:Connect(function()
	
	widget = plugin:CreateDockWidgetPluginGui("titleawed",widgetInfo)
	widget.Title = "This is the real title"	
	widget.Enabled = true
	
	widget:BindToClose(function()
		firstButton:SetActive(false)
	end)
end)

Try using widget:GetPropertyChangedSignal("Enabled") instead of BindToClose.

The issue is not so much about the Event itself, the issue comes from the firstButton:SetActive(false) instead of deactivating the firstButton nothing actually happens. I did try your solution out of curiosity, but no luck.

Why are you doing it within the Click event btw?

Usually you’d want to have the widget already created and just Enable and Disable it when clicked.

ye, except I’m trying to make it disable when you press the X button on the widget

I have actually tried it outside of the .Click() in a bind to close and it’s still not deactivating it, it’s quite weird, I’ll try doing it with property changed as well

What do you mean by “disable”?

So that the plugin image/text in the plugin tool bar is no longer “highlighted” via “SetActive()”

local gui = ...
local toggleButton = ...

gui:GetPropertyChangedSignal("Enabled"):Connect(function()
  toggleButton:SetActive(gui.Enabled)
end)

This is from one of my plugins and it does work

oh boyo, that actually worked, I wonder why it doesn’t work in Click() or BindToClose(), very odd, thank you so much!
