How To Make Negative And Positive Numbers Only Text Box?

[iAliBerk (xRoxelizer)]

I was making a textbox where only numbers could be written, but I noticed that negative numbers could not be written, so - symbol could not be used, can you help me?

My Code:

script.Parent:GetPropertyChangedSignal("Text"):Connect(function()
	script.Parent.Text = script.Parent.Text:gsub('%D+', '');
end)

How can I use :gsub for number-only text (both decimal, negative, positive)

You would just include "%-". The percent sign is there because the dash has a special meaning in string patterns, so by putting a % in front of it you are cancelling out that meaning so that it is matched as an actual - sign. "[^%d%.%-]" By the way the period is a magic character as well so you have to escape it there too.

How would I create a number only TextBox?

How would I go about making a number only textbox? To elaborate I want a textbox that you can only type numbers in.

Maybe one of these would help

[Forummer]

local Script = script
local TextBox = Script.Parent

local function OnTextChanged()
	TextBox.Text = string.gsub(TextBox.Text, "[^%d%-%.]", "")
end

TextBox:GetPropertyChangedSignal("Text"):Connect(OnTextChanged)
