crystal lion ```lua local textLabel = script.Parent:WaitForChild("TextLabel") local textBox ...

Why are you printing all that on the first line?

crystal lion Apr 9, 2025, 7:07 PM

#

#

leaden prism Apr 9, 2025, 7:08 PM

#

crystal lion in the codeblock emoji

No your code. First line of code. you're doing print("local yada yada, why that

crystal lion Apr 9, 2025, 7:08 PM

#

leaden prism Apr 9, 2025, 7:09 PM

crystal lion Apr 9, 2025, 7:09 PM

#

leaden prism Apr 9, 2025, 7:10 PM

Did you make these changes in the script itself?

crystal lion Apr 9, 2025, 7:11 PM

#

leaden prism Did you make these changes in the script itself?

?

crystal lion Apr 9, 2025, 7:11 PM

#

crystal lion a similar one

leaden prism Apr 9, 2025, 7:12 PM

#

crystal lion ?

you just posted code. Is this not the code you were using?

crystal lion Apr 9, 2025, 7:12 PM

#

I was kinda using it

#

But

#

It wasnt working

#

And im making a monitor that will display song text

#

And that i will be able to edit text in a ui

leaden prism Apr 9, 2025, 7:13 PM

#

crystal lion It wasnt working

Did you make the same changes you just did on Discord to the script itself? Or only Discord

crystal lion Apr 9, 2025, 7:14 PM

#

Not really sure what do u mean 😅

You posted code. I assumed that was the script you were using but wasn't working.

I suggested changes. You edited the code you posted here.

But did you make those same changes to the code in Roblox Studio

crystal lion Apr 9, 2025, 7:15 PM

#

I had the same code there and on roblox

#

And it didnt work like I expected

#

It to work

leaden prism Apr 9, 2025, 7:16 PM

#

crystal lion It to work

Okay so the code isn't causing any errors but it's not doing what you want it to do, that right? after my suggested changes?

crystal lion Apr 9, 2025, 7:17 PM

#

Yeah.

leaden prism Apr 9, 2025, 7:17 PM

#

crystal lion Yeah.

Where is the script placed and what kind of script is it

crystal lion Apr 9, 2025, 7:18 PM

#

Uh

#

Ill tell you when i get to my pc oki

#

Probably 10 mins

#

Screen GUI > LocalScript

leaden prism Apr 9, 2025, 7:22 PM

#

crystal lion Probably 10 mins

So this is a GUI in the StarterGUI, that right?

crystal lion Apr 9, 2025, 7:28 PM

#

Yeah

#

I think so

leaden prism Apr 9, 2025, 7:29 PM

#

crystal lion I think so

May wanna confirm that

crystal lion Apr 9, 2025, 7:29 PM

#

? Sorry im not
That good in english

#

And dont know what you really mean

leaden prism Apr 9, 2025, 7:34 PM

#

crystal lion And dont know what you really mean

You said "I think so". You need to find out if that is true

crystal lion Apr 9, 2025, 7:35 PM

#

Yes i had it there

leaden prism Apr 9, 2025, 7:36 PM

#

crystal lion Yes i had it there

okay, and the problem is what specifically?

crystal lion Apr 9, 2025, 7:36 PM

#

It doesnt display anything at all

#

Or change anything

#

The script

leaden prism Apr 9, 2025, 7:37 PM

#

crystal lion The script

Are you wanting it to appear on the monitor you showed me?

crystal lion Apr 9, 2025, 7:38 PM

#

Yes.

#

And that i could change it using a chat command or a ui

#

Its just what’s easier for u

leaden prism Apr 9, 2025, 7:41 PM

#

I'm not sure I understand.

If it's not a SurfaceGUI, it's not going to show on the monitor

crystal lion Apr 9, 2025, 7:43 PM

#

I had a surface gui

#

Kinda

#

But removed it

leaden prism Apr 9, 2025, 7:45 PM

#

crystal lion But removed it

Why?

crystal lion Apr 9, 2025, 7:45 PM

#

Because it didn’t work

leaden prism Apr 9, 2025, 8:00 PM

#

crystal lion Because it didn’t work

It could be an issue if you put SurfaceGui in StaterGui

You'd have to either set the Adornee property to the screen or put the SurfaceGui on the monitor itself and change the script to a ServerScript
