Tweening multiple things isnt working

local function nextQuestion()
	for i, answer in ipairs(answersContainer:GetChildren()) do
		if answer:IsA("Frame") then
			if answer.Transparency ~= 0 then
				answer.Transparency = 0
			end
			if answer.letterContainer.Transparency ~= 0 then
				answer.letterContainer.Transparency = 0
			end
			if answer.letterContainer.letter.TextTransparency ~= 0 then
				answer.letterContainer.letter.TextTransparency = 0
			end
		end
	end
	currentQuestion += 1
	if currentQuestion > 1 then
		for i, question in ipairs(answersContainer:GetChildren()) do
			if question:IsA("Frame") then
				local outTween = tweenService:Create(question,info1,changePositionGoal)
				outTween:Play()
			end
		end
	end
	wait(0.25)

This is a segment of my code. Before, I had a frame tweening off the screen and it worked fine, however when i do it to multiple things like above it doesnt tween but the code still runs below it. How can i make this tween work for all 3 frames?

What is is your tweenInfo, also, is changePositionGoal a table with a value like:

{Position = Udim2.new(2,0,0,0)}

or something like that?

Two quick notes to follow then:
You can shorten your code by changing:

local outTween = tweenService:Create(question,info1,changePositionGoal)
outTween:Play()

to:

tweenService:Create(question,info1,changePositionGoal):Play()

Also, they are GUIObject's, so you can use :TweenPosition(), which is a much more simple solution.

sorry for late response, here are those


local info1 = TweenInfo.new(
   0.5,
   Enum.EasingStyle.Linear,
   Enum.EasingDirection.Out,
   0,
   true,
   0
   
)

local changePositionGoal = {
   Position = UDim2.fromScale(0.502,1.5)
}

To deduce where the problem lies, put a print statement just before the tween runs and see if you get any output. If you don’t, then it’s probably a problem with your for loop.

#5

when i put it before the tween it works, andwhen i put one after it it works too

#6

Ok, then the issue is probably your tween. I would honestly just suggest switching it to question:TweenPosition(Udim2.fromScale(0.502,1.5)), that should work, or something like that, I haven’t used the function in a while, here’s the devHub page:
https://developer.roblox.com/en-us/api-reference/function/GuiObject/TweenPosition

still doesnt tween, just prints

#8

What else is happening to those frames, at some point in the script is this happening to them:

question.Visible = false

If that is happening, it may just be that it’s occuring before they have time to tween, so they just disappear. The nice thing with TweenPosition is that you can set a callback function. So I usually do this:

question:TweenPosition(Udim2.fromScale(0.502,1.5), Enum.EasingDirection.Linear, Enum.EasingStyle.Out, 0.5, false, function()
    question.Visible = false
end)

	table.insert(chosenQuestionsList,questionChosen)

here is full code, if the answer is " " which i have as a placeholder, the frame dissapears for that question

Fix the TweenPosition, change it to the code I gave you, and see if it works then. As you have it currently, it won’t work.

Sorry for the late response, I had lots of school work going on. I updated the code and all that happened was they dissapeared when i answered
