[HELP] GUI in marker ain't showing

[FlorjanMTARP]

Please before you comment stuff, you should know that I am 13 years old and I'm a web programmer (decent) HTML,CSS and PHP. I want to get to known Lua since I'm also helping my friend make a server. I've used GUI Editor to make a GUI for an upcoming Garage System and when I enter the marker nothing shows up. No errors, No outputs, nothing.

peace... It's client sided.

Can't really find anything that seems wrong in your script but there are two things you might want to try after all:

• Don't name your marker variable "marker" since it's also a class name, use something else instead. And don't forget the event handlers.
  
• You might also add the second argument to the hit and leave functions which is matching dimension: https://wiki.multitheftauto.com/wiki/OnClientMarkerHit

"GUIEditor" table is missing, you obviously removed it from the code given by guieditor.

[Mr_Moose]

You're right, it is missing. Strange that it didn't returned any errors then, did you checked /debugscript 3? That's a good way to find this kind of errors.

[Castillo]

It does return errors, that's how I found out.

[Mr_Moose]

It does return errors, that's how I found out.

That's why I told FlorjanMTARP to use debugscript In my first reply I only read the code so I guess this became a human error from my side.

[FlorjanMTARP]

I removed it because when It was wrote, The GUI was just showing all the time. So there weren't any solutions and I've also tried renaming the marker, probably.

I want it to popup onClientMarkerHit. <- Not to be rude

[Mr_Moose]

guiSetVisible ( GUIEditor.window[1], false ) 

[FlorjanMTARP]

I've been dealing with this guiSetVisible for 30min .

[Et-win]

He means to put that table back and then use that code, because now it won't do anything anymore without that table.

[Castillo]

local GUIEditor = 
    { 
        window = { }, 
        staticimage = { }, 
        label = { }, 
        button = { } 
    } 

Put that on the top of the script.
