Didn’t work for me. Could you be more specific in where to put each part of the script and module?
Make sure you require it first.
Then you gotta make the varible for the actuall events.
You would probably would want to use a local script and the the module script in replicated storage.
That should help.
Hi! I was wondering if anyone here has a solution to where it doesn’t keep detecting frames that aren’t visible on screen?
For example, the frame is still visible but the parent frames aren’t. Is there a way to detect or check if their parent frames are also visible?

Any reason as to why this isnt working im so confused
local MouseOverModule = require(game.ReplicatedStorage.Packages.MouseOverModule)
local LeftIntHolder = game.StarterGui.MainUI.ScreenBorder.LeftInteractionHolder
local MouseEnter, MouseLeave = MouseOverModule.MouseEnterLeaveEvent(LeftIntHolder.MenuSideInteraction)
MouseEnter:Connect(function()
LeftIntHolder.MenuSideInteraction:TweenSize(UDim2.new(0,75,0,75))
print("mouse entered")
end)
MouseLeave:Connect(function()
LeftIntHolder.MenuSideInteraction:TweenSize(UDim2.new(0,60,0,60))
print("mouse left")
end)
it prints but does not tweensize
maybe because youre only changing the one in StarterGui (which is essentially the guis template when a player respawn) instead of the PlayerGui itself

This works, but I just realized if there’s another parent thats not visible it still detects your mouse. My solution to that was to add another if parent visible 
If anyone is having the issue where MouseEnter fires even when the gui element isn’t visible, it’s as simple as returning false if the gui element isn’t visible.
local function IsInFrame(v)
if not v.Visible then
return false
end
local X = Mouse.X
local Y = Mouse.Y
if X>v.AbsolutePosition.X and Y>v.AbsolutePosition.Y and X<v.AbsolutePosition.X+v.AbsoluteSize.X and Y<v.AbsolutePosition.Y+v.AbsoluteSize.Y then
return true
else
return false
end
end
Sorry for the bump, but i tweaked the module to work without player:GetMouse() (and cleaned it up a bit.)

local Y = UserInputService:GetMouseLocation().Y
if X > v.AbsolutePosition.X and Y > v.AbsolutePosition.Y
and
X < v.AbsolutePosition.X + v.AbsoluteSize.X
and
Y < v.AbsolutePosition.Y + v.AbsoluteSize.Y
then
return true
else
return false
end
end
local function CheckMouseExited(Object)
if not Object.MouseIsInFrame

I’m a few years late but maybe someone else will find this useful. I had that same issue so I fixed it myself!

For debugging: All I did was also check if the mouse is within the bounds of the guiObject’s parent
