TextButton not working

I made a basic text button for a game but it doesn’t seem to be working for some reason.

Script

local request = game.StarterGui.MainGUI.request

local visible = false

script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
	if visible == false then
		visible = true
		request.Visible = true
	end
end)

script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
	if visible == true then
		visible = false
		request.Visible = false
	end
end)

If you want to change visible, you can’t do like that.

Yes property will change but in StarterGui instead in playerGui. So player will doesn’t see changes in GUI. You don’t need 2 events.

You can try my code below.

Be sure, this code is in local script in your ScreenGui.

local ScreenGui = script.Parent -- Your screenGui.
local Frame = ScreenGui:WaitForChild("Frame") -- Your objectGui for change visible
local TextButton = ScreenGui:WaitForChild("TextButton") -- Your textbutton to click.

local visible = false

TextButton.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
	if visible == false then
		visible = true
		Frame.Visible = true
	else
		visible = false
		Frame.Visible = false
	end
end)

Make sure to put this piece of code in a local script inside of the MainGui in the StarterGui

Try do this, I’m pretty sure this will work:

local MainGUI = script.Parent
local request = MainGUI:WaitForChild(“request”)
local loading = MainGUI:WaitForChild(“load”)

local visible = false

loading.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
	if not visible then
		visible = true
		request.Visible = true
	end
end)


loading.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
	if visible then
		visible = false
		request.Visible = false
	end
end)

local request = game:GetService("StarterGui"):WaitForChild("MainGUI"):WaitForChild("request")

local visible = false

script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
	if visible ~= true then
		visible = true
		request.Visible = true
	else
        visible = false
        request.Visible = false
     end
end)

This is probably how it should look like, if you put two same button subscriptions into one script, script won’t get Signal for your current function. And in your video, the Frame probably had Background transparency on 0 or children inside had ‘false’ on Visible property. I hope this helped you.
