Im working on a windows xp game and im having a gui white board but I cant get it to work on changing the colour
I can send the explorer if needed
code:
local frame = script.Parent
local mouse = game.Players.LocalPlayer:GetMouse()
local ClearButton = script.Parent.ClearButton
local x
local y
local pressed = false
mouse.Button1Down:Connect(function()
pressed = true
end)
mouse.Button1Up:Connect(function()
pressed = false
end)
game:GetService(“RunService”).RenderStepped:Connect(function()
x = mouse.X
y = mouse.Y
if pressed == true then
local dot = Instance.new(“Frame”)
dot.Name = “Dot”
dot.Parent = frame
dot.BackgroundColor3 = Color3.new(0,0,0)
dot.Size = UDim2.new(0, 6, 0, 6)
dot.Position = UDim2.new(0, x - frame.AbsolutePosition.X, 0, y - frame.AbsolutePosition.Y)
end
end)
ClearButton.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
for i, q in pairs(frame:GetChildren()) do
if q.Name == “Dot” then
q:Destroy()
end
end
end)
local color = Color3.fromRGB(255, 0, 0)
(dot.BackgroundColor3 = color)
RedButton.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function)
color = Color3.fromRGB(0, 0, 0)
end)

What Colour are you looking for? Black white green blue Rainbow? And yes im in Canada so don’t make fun of me for spelling “Colour” Instead of “Color”

Ok try switching these 2 around
This didnt work if this helps here is the output
Players.3DRobloxGameDev.PlayerGui.Options.Startup.frame.LocalScript:39: Ambiguous syntax: this looks like an argument list for a function call, but could also be a start of new statement; use ‘;’ to separate statements
Im pretty new well not pretty new to scripting I’ve figured out how to script VIP Chat tags and stuff like this
But I’ve never seen anything like this. I might not be able to help this.
why adding a () in between those?
A error i must of made during doing it i just removed them it sorted the issue of some of the red underline in the code
local frame = script.Parent local mouse = game.Players.LocalPlayer:GetMouse() local ClearButton = script.Parent.ClearButton
local x local y local pressed = false mouse.Button1Down:Connect(function() pressed = true end)
mouse.Button1Up:Connect(function() pressed = false end)
game:GetService("RunService").RenderStepped:Connect(function() x = mouse.X y = mouse.Y if pressed == true then local dot = Instance.new("Frame") dot.Name = "Dot" dot.Parent = frame dot.BackgroundColor3 = Color3.new(0,0,0) dot.Size = UDim2.new(0, 6, 0, 6) dot.Position = UDim2.new(0, x - frame.AbsolutePosition.X, 0, y - frame.AbsolutePosition.Y) end end)
ClearButton.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function() for i, q in pairs(frame:GetChildren()) do if q.Name == "Dot" then q:Destroy() end end end) color = Color3.fromRGB(0, 0, 0) dot.BackgroundColor3 = color RedButton.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function) color = Color3.fromRGB(0, 0, 0) local color = Color3.fromRGB(255, 0, 0) end)

I guess I see the issue.
Are you referencing “dot” in both of your functions (the run service and the mouse button click)?
because it seems like you reference it in the first function and not the the other and the script don’t know what “dot” is
syntax errors
you don’t need to bracket dot.BackgroundColor3 = color otherwise it may break
2, last function loop opening is lacking an opening bracket after function [ (function() ]
edit: my bad issue 1 is already fixed

I used this off a youtube tutorial im not a strong scripter but yes i have mentioned dot in the colour part to
also, is the RedButton variable predefined?
“RedButton.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function)]”
Ooh that maybe the issue i dont think it is
RedButton.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()******
red underline in redbutton and dot
