How do I make buttons function on the cursors click in roblox studio? [duplicate]

Question

I would just like to know how to add buttons in roblox studio because when I play roblox and see all those great games with buttons that I can click! How do I make a button, and how do I make it work?

Answer 1

According the the Roblox developer website, you can create a button by right clicking in the Explorer window and clicking the button you want. There are two types of buttons as described on the website.

Text Button: A TextButton is very similar to a TextLabel, except that a player can activate it with a click. Internally, it also shares many of the same visual properties as a text label — font, background color, stroke color, etc.

Image Button: Similarly, an ImageButton is like an interactive version of the ImageLabel object and it uses a custom image that you upload to Roblox. It also shares most of the same properties as its non-button counterpart.

In order to add a function that occurs when a button is pressed, simply create a local script inside the button and add this code:

function leftClick()
    print("You can replace this line with any function you want on a left click.")
end
 
script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect(leftClick)
