How to disable text box in first person

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

I would like to disable the text box by detecting the return key however the return key adds another line in the text box.

#2

Hmmm… Try using this script below. If it doesn’t work, let me know :slight_smile:

textbox.FocusLost:Connect(function()
     textbox.Visible = false
end)
#3

It doesn’t seem to work in the way I used it (I just inserted the code and pressed enter)

#4

Can you show me the full code including the code I told you to insert? Also, try stopping and running the project again to make sure it is updated.

#5 
function OpenChant()
	CAS:UnbindAction("open")
	DOFAppear:Play()
	Box.Visible = true
	Box:CaptureFocus()
end


Box.FocusLost:Connect(function()
	Box.Visible = false
end)

CAS:BindAction("open",OpenChant,true,Enum.KeyCode.T)
#6

Also what would FocusLost really do?

#7

Ok. Another solution is to use UserInputService. I believe it still fires when in a textbox, so just use this code and delete the last piece you inserted.

game:GetService('UserInputService').InputBegan:Connect(function(key)
     if key.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.Return then 
          Box.Visible = false
     end
end)

Also, FocusLost normally detects when a user stops editing the textbox, basically. Normally it should fire when Enter is pressed, so IDK whath happened. :slight_smile:
