TweenPosition not working?

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

I am trying to tween a frame like usual how I do in all my scripts while working with UI and its just not working, there are no errors or anything printing into the console.

local shopIcon = script.Parent.shopIcon
local shopButton = shopIcon.shopButton
local storeFrame = script.Parent.storeFrame
local storeToggle = storeFrame.storeToggle.Value

shopButton.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
	if storeToggle == false then
		storeFrame:TweenPosition(UDim2.new(0.207, 0,0.223, 0))
		wait(2)
		storeToggle = true
	elseif storeToggle == true then
		storeFrame:TweenPosition(UDim2.new(0.207, 0,1.1, 0))
		wait(2)
		storeToggle = false
	end
end)

The script above isn’t working, but yet when I join the game and run a command shown below it works perfectly fine…

game.Players.LocalPlayer.PlayerGui.Main.storeFrame:TweenPosition(UDim2.new(0.207, 0,0.223, 0))

Any clue at all what is going on or is there just an error going on inside of Roblox Studio ?

Did you set the variable “storeToggle” to false correctly?

TweenPosition uses more than just UDim2, you would need to add more Arguments to it for it to function, for Example:

storeFrame:TweenPosition(
    UDim2.fromScale(.207,.223),
    "InOut", -- EasingDirection
    "Linear", -- EasingStyle
    1 -- Duration
    -- there are 3 more Aguments
)

Tried this already before, didn’t work

shopButton.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
	if not storeToggle then
		storeFrame:TweenPosition(UDim2.new(0.207, 0,0.223, 0), Enum.EasingDirection.InOut, Enum.EasingStyle.Linear, 1, nil, nil)
		wait(2)
		storeToggle = true
	elseif storeToggle then
		storeFrame:TweenPosition(UDim2.new(0.207, 0,1.1, 0), Enum.EasingDirection.InOut, Enum.EasingStyle.Linear, 1, nil, nil)
		wait(2)
		storeToggle = false
	end
end)

^ also this isnt true

forgot about argument or Default

function prints(x: number)
    print(x or 1) -- if x is nil, it will print 1
end

prints(2) --> 2
prints() --> 1
prints(nil) --> 1

Just asking, have you actually checked if these Exist? Use WaitForChild() if you’re using the Client, Not everything will load right away.

I am sure these exist, I even re wrote the whole script just incase

THats not what I’m saying, If you read what I said:

#10

I did use WaitForChild() and it didnt work

#11

I would go with what xGOA7x said, and use: UDim2.fromScale, for example:

TS = game:GetService("TweenService")

local shopIcon = script.Parent.shopIcon
local shopButton = shopIcon.shopButton
local storeFrame = script.Parent.storeFrame
local storeToggle = storeFrame.storeToggle.Value

local tweenDuration = 1
local TweenInfo = TweenInfo.new(tweenDuration, Enum.EasingStyle.Sine, Enum.EasingDirection.InOut, 0)
local TweenPropsIn = {Position = UDim2.fromScale(0.207, 0.223)}
local TweenPropsOut = {Position = UDim2.fromScale(0.207, 1.1)}
local FrameTweenIn = TS:Create(storeFrame, TweenInfo, TweenPropsIn)
local FrameTweenOut = TS:Create(storeFrame, TweenInfo, TweenPropsOut)

shopButton.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
	if storeToggle == false then
        print("storeToggle = false") -- See if this prints
		FrameTweenIn:Play()
		wait(2)
		storeToggle = true
    end
	if storeToggle == true then
        print("storeToggle = true") -- See if this prints
		FrameTweenOut:Play()
		wait(2)
		storeToggle = false
	end
end)

Hopefully this fixes the issue!

Add ,"Out","Quad",1.4 so it can work.

I recommend using task.wait instead of wait.

local shopIcon = script.Parent.shopIcon
local shopButton = shopIcon.shopButton
local storeFrame = script.Parent.storeFrame
local storeToggle = storeFrame.storeToggle

shopButton.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
	if storeToggle.Value == false then
		storeFrame:TweenPosition(UDim2.new(0.207, 0,0.223, 0),"Out","Quad",1.4)
		task.wait(2)
		storeToggle.Value = true
	elseif storeToggle.Value == true then
		storeFrame:TweenPosition(UDim2.new(0.207, 0,1.1, 0),"Out","Quad",1.4)
		task.wait(2)
		storeToggle.Value = false
	end
end)
