Some Gui buttons do not work on mobile

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

Having wanting to make our game compatible with all platforms, we want all buttons to work functional no matter what plateform you might be on

However, buttons that are inside a scrolling frame (eg. in a shop) do not work. We use activated on all buttons to insure that it works for mobile.

I looked on the developer forum but haven’t found anything that is a solution to my problem, I’m assuming this is a problem with scrolling frames and mobile but I might be wrong.

Thanks! :slight_smile:

what type of input event are you using inside the buttons that detect if it was clicked?

#3

I mentioned before, we use Button.Activated

#4

try replacing it with MouseButton1Click.

edit: is the Activate property in the buttons turned on? if they are, try turning it off and see if the Activated event will work.

#5

If we turned off the activate property it wouldn’t work for pc. And I’m almost certain that MouseButton1 click won’t work for mobile, but I’ll try

#6

have you tested if it works on pc if you turn it off?

#7

I’m 99% sure MouseButton1Click works for mobile, I use it in my game.

I remember that I changed some buttons to “Down” not “Click” even though not the best solution.

Now this is occurring once again, but this time on a Roblox game we are developing called Bunker.PSD, I noticed that the group is filling with people talking about the mobile GUI isn’t working anymore, which makes me surprised, I even tested it myself, on PC, all button was working absolutely fine! But when I switched to mobile, none of the buttons worked, so I look up to a topic about fixing this issues, I do not know why this bug happens, it’s random for some reason, I found this topic and found out you need to replace MouseButton1Click with MouseButton1Down, I tried it, and it worked for mobile now! Nothing changed much on PC, now I have 1 more problem:

Now our game Bunker.PSD has Textbox, now the thing is the Textbox isn’t working too! pressing it on mobile does nothing, but just doing 1 click on PC works fine, now if anyone can help me, I want to find a way to make a script that will let you type in the textbox with mobile keyboard popping up by using a script, yes I used CaptureFocus() function, this function forces the client to focus on the Textbox, but now when I used this function, the mobile keyboard pops up not even just 1 second, it already disappear, now the Textbox is preventing me from interacting it and letting us type a text inside it, I will be appreciated if you guys can help me making a solution to this bug! It’s extremely annoying that most mobile players cannot join Multiplayer due to the Textbox not working properly.

Here is the game where the bug is occurring:

Thank you for reading and I hope I explained every single information you need.

I don’t think you should bump a 7 month old thread.

You should be creating a new thread for this but anyway…

Have you tried adopting Activated as opposed to MouseButton1Click/MouseButton1Down? If you need to know if someone is holding an object down or if they’ve just released it, use InputBegan and InputEnded.
