MTA GUI Buttons

[FlyingSpoon]

Well, I want to type 5 numbers, maximum integer 5 and basically the person is meant to type but I cant get it to type, so far when the person presses the certain button it only appears that number. Can someone help me?

e.g.

'Person presses 1, 4, 2, 1'

It will appear in the GUI Edit

add a number to the table like this:

local numberTable = {} 
addEventHandler("onClientGUIClick", Button1, function() 
   if #numberTable < 6 then 
      table.insert(numberTable, 1) 
   end 
end) 
  

i dont know why are you using edit box, just simply write out with a label. You can write out like this:

  
 addEventHandler("onClientRender", root, function() 
 dxDrawText(table.concat(numberTable), --rest of dxText) 
end) 
  

Or you can use guilabel or set the text of the edit box without onClientRender.

Dont understand what you're trying to do.

ok, then what is your problem? i showed you how to add number in table and write out the table numbers.

Dont understand what you're trying to do.

Explain your problem better , if you are talking about the maximum text length that can be typed into an edit box use

guiEditSetMaxLength()

I am trying to type numbers so for example,

If I press the button 1 and 2 and 3 and 4

It will say in the GUI Edit Box 1234

Hmmm.. Why don't you get the text and set the text with the old one plus the new one??

local oldText = guiGetText( gui-edit ); 
local newText = guiSetText( gui-edit, oldText .. "1" );

i said it right then...

local table = {} 
addEventHandler("onClientGUIClick", button1, function() 
  if #table <= 5 then 
     table.insert(table, 5) 
  end 
end) 

wirte the value...

  
 dxDrawText(table.concat(table)) -- write it like this: table.concat(tablename) 
  

you can do this with edit box, just set the text of the edit box like this

  
 guiSetText(edit, table.concat(table))
