Hi, i’m new at godot

How I can get the node of TextBox?
The console returns errors, but the variables names are the same on node.

Your script is actually ON the TextBox node itself. In that case, you don’t want the $ reference, as that’s used to access children of the current node. Since your TextBox node IS the current node, you can access its properties directly. So, instead of this.

text_box.visible = True

just do…

visible = True
