Code Samples

TextBox.FocusLost1

The example shown below will print “Focus was lost because enter was pressed!” whenever the TextBox loses focus as a result of the enter key being pressed.

script.Parent.FocusLost:Connect(function(enterPressed)
    if enterPressed then
        print("Focus was lost because enter was pressed!")
    end
end)

FocusLost

This example works when placed in a /LocalScript that is the child of a TextBox. When the TextBox loses focus, the example prints either:

1. “Player pressed Enter” - if the TextBox lost focus because the player pressed the Enter key.
   or
2. “Player pressed InputObject.KeyCode” - where “KeyCode” is the /InputObject KeyCode property of the input that caused the TextBox to lose focus. For example, pressing the Escape (esc) key to exit TextBox focus returns an InputObject instance with the KeyCode ‘InputObject.Escape’.

TextBox.FocusLost:Connect(function(enterPressed, inputThatCausedFocusLost)
	if enterPressed then
		print("Player pressed Enter")
	else
		print("Player pressed", inputThatCausedFocusLost.KeyCode)
	end
end)
