So I want a textbox’s text to equal the text of a textlabel. I tried doing it, but everything doesn’t work. Please help!

My code:

local TextBox = --textbox location
local TextLabel = --textlabel location

TextBox:GetPropertyChangedSignal('Text'):Connect(function()
	TextLabel.Text = TextBox.Text
end)
#2

Try put the script inside a Local Script (if you haven’t already)

#3

I have, and it doesn’t work at all.

#4

Did you maybe set the local TextBox to the TextLabel?
Because If I try it inside a Local script it works fine

#5

Did you try something like this?

local TextBox = --location
local TextLabel = --location

TextBox.FocusLost:Connect(function()
 TextLabel.Text = TextBox.Text
end)
#6

Are you sure you have the TextBox and TextLabel locations correctly? if yes what error are you getting in the output?(if there is any)

#7

If he have the TextBox and TextLabel located wrong there is not going to be an error because both got the Text Property.

But yes I think that’s his problem

#8

Try flipping it

textbox.text = textlabel.text

also have you tried .Changed function?

#9

He might have added a .Text already to the variables, so although he might think the location is correct he would still get an error.

#10

how are you assigning the location? I feel like you’re referencing the StarterGui instead of the PlayerGui

#11

I’ve tried remaking your code and it works as it should. As @MCNightwatcher said, are you sure you assigned the variables in the right location? Can you send how you actually assigned it?

Nope! I am using script.Parent, and not game.StarterGui
