FredokaOne is not a valid member of Enum.Font

You can write your topic however you want, but you need to answer these questions:

What do you want to achieve? Keep it simple and clear!
set a menu to a font that loads as soon as the player joins the game.
What is the issue? Include screenshots / videos if possible!
I am getting the error: FredokaOne is not a valid member of Enum.Font even though it works fine when you change it manually.
What solutions have you tried so far? Did you look for solutions on the Developer Hub?
I tried adding a line to see when it was loaded, but it just infinitely waited.
the line that I tried adding:

repeat wait() until table.find(Enum.Font:GetEnumItems(),script.Parent.Value)

the full script:

local function updateFont()
	for _, object in pairs(script.Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent:GetDescendants()) do
		if object:IsA("TextButton") or object:IsA("TextLabel") or object:IsA("TextBox") then
			object.Font = Enum.Font[script.Parent.Value]
		end
	end
end
script.Parent.Changed:Connect(function()
	updateFont()
end)

Enums allow string values, have you tried setting the font to FredokaOne as a string?

Have you tried this instead? :
object.Font = "FredokaOne"

dude8074alt · May 30, 2021, 11:31pm

So like this?

object.Font = Enum.Font[tostring(script.Parent.Value)]

I tried doing object.Font = script.Parent.Value, but it erred with Invalid value ""FredokaOne"" for enum Font

That’s strange. Another try would be:
object.Font = 26

And if that doesn’t work either… I honestly don’t know.

That worked, however how would I get the font number of each font? Would I have to make a table with each number and it’s font name, and find it on there?

The list is here.

Okay, I just made a super long if statement for setting it

            if script.Parent.Value == "Arial" then
