ClickDetector doesn't show the hand icon?

probably a roblox update for sure…

Try fully reinstall roblox player and studio. You brobably removed hand icon from roblox files. (Even if you dont did it, reinstall)

Also happening here, getting really frustrating considering I’m trying to make a door here.
I doubt it’s intentional, most likely a bug.

Happens 100% of the time in base parts & models. Something to do with the CursorIcon property being empty maybe? I would have expected Roblox to default it to the hand icon if empty though.

Do you have another Mouse Icon overriding the hand icon?
Another issue might be ClickDetector.MaxActivationDistance. Check your MaxActivationDistance on the click detector.

Nope, default icon.
MaxActivationDistance is set to 32, I’m able to click it but the icon doesn’t appear which means players won’t be able to find the button.

My solution right now is just to change to ProximityPrompt since I needed to anyway for the sake of avoiding ClickDetector and it’s inevitable deprecation.

This issue seems to happen to me and two of my friends as well. I have noticed that the hover icon shows up when the cursor leaves the game screen, which is a rather odd behavior. Also, the clicked event doesn’t seem to fire on studio. What I mean: https://i.imgur.com/wpZnmlw.gif

Can confirm, my click detectors don’t have icons anymore either, except at border of the screen (?!)

After doing more digging this doesn’t happen in the Roblox Player, only in Studio and Play Tests.
So, it’s not all that impactful.

Still a nuisance when testing my stuff though!

Hi @PhoTech2021 If you are testing your game on studio the clickdetectors do not show the hand (but it works if you click it), im getting the same problem while in studio, and i think it is a problem of the latest roblox updates.

But if you enter the “real” game on Roblox everything should work fine, if while in game you don’t see it , it means that there is something wrong with your code or how you set up the click detector.

Thanks! That is what I thought. Because I recall there is a Roblox update that happened between when the hand icon worked and when it was gone.

Yeah, It’s A Roblox studio Bug as i exaplained above.

If you think my answer is correct, feel free to mark it as a solution!
Also the best way for report this bug is #bug-reports:studio-bugs Not here.
