How do I turn the Text Box hover image invisible?

The reason I put this in Scripting Support is because I don’t think there is a way to do this in the properties page, and can only be done via script, but I would rather prefer a way from the properties!

wdym hover image? the textbox has no hover image.

This one:

#5

why would you even use a TextBox for that? use a TextLabel.

#6

The player can type if they do a certain task.

#7

Unfortunately, you can’t really do that.

Oh ok :frowning:
I guess I’ll use both a text label and text box

#9

you can replace the textlabel to a textbox when tasks are done.

#10

That’s what I meant to say

char limit

#11

You can try constructing a custom icon when the player enters the UI, I’ll make a script real quick.

#12

You can stop the hover, but not the icon from appearing, it won’t appear if ‘Active’ is disabled, but it’ll still appear when you focus, 'tis easier to just change it to a TextLabel.

#13

I already stopped that icon from appearing on focus with CursorPosition, but I can’t stop the hover.
I guess it will be extremely easier just changing it to a TextLabel

#14

The active property will disable it from appearing on ‘hover’

Try this:

--//Services
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local UserInputService = game:GetService("UserInputService")

--//Variables
local LocalPlayer = Players.LocalPlayer
local PlayerGui = LocalPlayer:WaitForChild("PlayerGui")
local Mouse = LocalPlayer:GetMouse()
local TextBox = script.Parent

--//Controls
local hoverImage = "rbxassetid://0000000"
local mouseEntered = false

--//Functions
TextBox.MouseEnter:Connect(function()
	mouseEntered = true
	UserInputService.MouseIconEnabled = false
	
	local newIcon = Instance.new("ImageLabel")
	newIcon.Position = UDim2.fromOffset(Mouse.X, Mouse.Y)
	newIcon.Image = hoverImage
	newIcon.BackgroundTransparency = 1
	newIcon.Parent = PlayerGui
	
	while mouseEntered do
		newIcon.Position = UDim2.fromOffset(Mouse.X, Mouse.Y)

		task.wait()
	end
	
	UserInputService.MouseIconEnabled = true
	newIcon:Destroy()
end)

TextBox.MouseLeave:Connect(function()
	mouseEntered = false
end)

Put it as a local script inside your TextBox.

The problem I’m having with that is it is also hiding the mouse cursor, I only want it to hide the hover Image, I’ll just use a textlabel instead, thx for trying though!

#17

I just said like three times, if you disable the active property on the TextBox, it will disable the hover-cursor.

#18

Ohh, I thought you wanted a custom hover cursor.

I disabled the active property but that does not disable the hover-cursor

Can’t you just disable UserInputService.MouseIconEnabled when they hover over the TextBox?

Like this:

--//Services
local UserInputService = game:GetService("UserInputService")

--//Variables
local TextBox = script.Parent

--//Functions
TextBox.MouseEnter:Connect(function()
	UserInputService.MouseIconEnabled = false
end)

TextBox.MouseLeave:Connect(function()
	UserInputService.MouseIconEnabled = true
end)
