Buttons in BillboardGuis don't fire MouseButton1Click

[EchoReaper]

In an empty baseplate, run this in the command bar in Studio or in a script in Play Solo:

p = Instance.new("Part", workspace); b = Instance.new("BillboardGui", p); b.Size = UDim2.new(0,50,0,50); b.Adornee = p; b.AlwaysOnTop = true; bb = Instance.new("TextButton", b) bb.Size = UDim2.new(1,0,1,0) bb.MouseButton1Click:connect(function() print("Clicked") end)

and try to click the button. Clicked won’t get printed out – the BillboardGui button doesn’t detect the click. This is a gif of the issue achieved using the code above in Play Solo:

Notice the cursor doesn’t even turn black (means ROBLOX doesn’t think the cursor is over a clickable object). I’ve tried setting both objects’ (BillboardGui and button) active properties to true, but that didn’t change anything.

BillboardGui’s need to be parented to PlayerGui then Adornee’d to the part, last I remember.

I don’t have a PlayerGui to parent it to since it’s being used in a plugin. I just tried parenting it to the CoreGui though and it worked.

Oh my gosh if I had only knew this a year ago.
