bool dxDrawRectangle ( int startX, int startY, float width, float height [, int color = white, bool postGUI = false] ) 

You have to use the event 'onClientRender' on this codes. You are using them, good. Instead of putting in: 'tocolor(255, 255, 255, 255)' you are going to do this:

--Add a variable which represents the current color: 
local gCurrentColor = tocolor(255, 255, 255, 255) 
  
--As soon as you change the color you can do this: 
local gR, gG, gB = guiGetText(youreditboxR), guiGetText(youreditboxG), guiGetText(youreditboxB) 
gCurrentColor = tocolor(tonumber(gR), tonumber(gG), tonumber(gB), 255) 

Be sure you only can enter numbers into the editboxes, if you add something else than a number, then you get alot of errors. (You can remove everything except digits with: 'string.gsub(yourstring, "%D", "")' )

Thanks i will check it !

Btw, why like this? Because on every frame it re-creates the codes you have in that function which is on event 'onClientRender'. (Because it's only created for 1 frame only) Which means, variables are awesome!

1. What error?

2.

function onKeyUse( element ) 
    if ( hasObjectPermissionTo ( element, "function.setServerPassword", true ) ) then 
        triggerClientEvent( element, "Show", element ) 
    end 
end 

I hope you aren't going to put backdoors in and put it online?

[MisterQuestions]

@guiSetVisible thats the error, when i press 'o' doesnt open window, and draw rectangle,else i press again 'o' and appears that onClientRender is already handled so?

No i dont gonna put backdoors would be a private script, i use hasObjectPermissionTo cause i tried with isObjectInACLGroup and doesn't work :c

Ah, just asking. Don't mind me. *cough*

But you didn't start function 'PanelAdmin', so 'guiGetVisible' can't find 'window'. Just start the function, and on the last line before 'end' set it invisible.

[MisterQuestions]

function toggleGUI() 
    if guiGetVisible(PanelAdmin) == false then 
        guiSetVisible(window,false) 
        showCursor(false) 
        removeEventHandler("onClientRender", getRootElement(), CurrentColor) 
    else 
        guiSetVisible(window,true) 
        showCursor(true) 
        addEventHandler("onClientRender", root, CurrentColor) 
    end 
end 
addEvent("Show",true) 
addEventHandler("Show",root,toggleGUI) 

Still not working

No, everything was correct. But you have to start function 'PanelAdmin' as soon as the resource starts. Then inside the function 'PanelAdmin', set the 'window' invisible with 'guiSetVisible'.
