I want an keyboard button or Controller, Have ability to hit signal 'TextButton Self trigger from it.
------------------------------
------------------------------
It doesn’t self trigger when i click, any button like R(KeyCode) to hit RC ‘TextButton’ < self trigger from the Keycode i press, connection. It you don’t understand, response here.
Kind regard, Joshua7ninjaX
You can’t fire the MouseButton1Click event, instead create a function then connect it to the event and in the UIS onKeyPress just call the function after you’ve checked the keycode
So is impossible without Mouse1buttonclick, when i click Keyboard button, i see TextButton properties like it said, Active and Selected. Is there any way?
No, send me the script and I can try to modify it for you.
function onKeyPress(inputObject)
if inputObject.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.R then
script.Parent.RC.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function() – RC is a button
game:GetService(“UserInputService”).InputBegan:connect(onKeyPress)
end
I might have to send you a model, for you to modify
what you need to use is the context action service like this
local contextActionService = game:GetService("ContextActionService")
local KEY = "Key"
local button -- put the ui button here
local function OnBinded(actionName,inputstate,inputObj)
if actionName == KEY then
--put here what you want to happen
end
end
contextActionService:BindAction(KEY,OnBinded,false,Enum.KeyCode.R)
button.MouseButton1Click:Connect(OnBinded)
you can read more about it here ContextActionService | Documentation - Roblox Creator Hub
local function Clicked() -- make func
print("stuff you want to do")
end
script.Parent.RC.MouseButton1Click:Connect(Clicked) -- connect it to clicked
game:GetService("UserInputService").InputBegan:Connect(function(input, gpe) -- connect a func to input began
if gpe then return end -- check if user is chatting
if input.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.R then -- check if its r
Clicked() -- call func
end
end)
tbh CAS is kind of weird, isn’t it for holding down keys and not pressing them for toggle? When i was trying to use it for a menu it opened when i pressed q but closed when i let go
Sorry for delay, i kept getting this
17:49:52.520 - BinAction is not a valid member of ContextActionService
BindAction!
A minor typo, but in scripting it is very important.
Anyway, you should have a function to handle when it’s clicked and then call that function based on the other inputs.
oh yeah i fixed it thank you for pointing it out
No offense, if you do like to try go ahead and find the solution.
I tested out my script, both the button and the R key printed out “stuff you want to do”
local function Clicked() -- make func
print("stuff you want to do")
end
script.Parent.RC.MouseButton1Click:Connect(Clicked) -- connect it to clicked
game:GetService("UserInputService").InputBegan:Connect(function(input, gpe) -- connect a func to input began
if gpe then return end -- check if user is chatting
if input.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.R then -- check if its r
Clicked() -- call func
end
end)
It did print out when i press R, I copy and paste on the script ‘stuff you want to do’ Note: Model i posted link is on the post for you to check out.
local function Clicked() – make func
print(“stuff you want to do”)
CurrentPage = 1 --the current page
function FlipPage(Way)
local NewPage = CurrentPage+Way – calculate which page should be the current page
if script.Parent.BFrame.MSFrame:findFirstChild(“Q”…NewPage)~=nil then – see if the new page exists
CurrentPage = NewPage
local P = script.Parent.BFrame.MSFrame:GetChildren()
for i = 1, #P do
P[i].Visible = false – first make every page transparent
end
script.Parent.BFrame.MSFrame:findFirstChild(“Q”…NewPage).Visible = true – show the right page
end
end
script.Parent.RC.MouseButton1Down:connect(function() FlipPage(1) end) – flip to the right
script.Parent.LC.MouseButton1Down:connect(function() FlipPage(-1) end) – flip to the left
end
script.Parent.RC.MouseButton1Click:Connect(Clicked) – connect it to clicked
game:GetService(“UserInputService”).InputBegan:Connect(function(input, gpe) – connect a func to input began
if gpe then return end – check if user is chatting
if input.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.R then – check if its r
Clicked() – call func
end
end)
Give me a few minutes to make something
Here, a fixed copy of the model:
I recorded a video of it: (quality might be bad for a few minutes so wait for youtube)
Big thank to you.
About the left button, i was gonna do that further after the solve, then again THANK YOU!
Why do i want that, because it is for Xbox user i can eventually update whether button like DPad left or right
You should also put the MouseButton1Click event in the KeyDown script, it’s just good practice.
