Scene bleeds through/how to prevent next scene from showing

LeslieS

I have a scene tree like this: 1. Node 2. ---TitleScreen 3. ---GameLoop 4. ------NewGame 5. ---------TextureRect

The problem is the image in the TextureRect shows up in the title screen.
So I try hiding the TextureRect but I can't seem to show it afterwards.
I attach a script to NewGame func _ready(): $Node/GameLoop/NewGame.show() But this returns an error Attempt to call function 'show' in base 'null instance' on a null instance.

What am I doing wrong?
(also don't know how to do code tags in this forum)

The parameter is called visible (at least for CanvasItems, like TextureRect). So do:

my_rect.visible = false

Or true when you want to show it.

$Node/GameLoop/NewGame/TableImg.visible = true Unfortunately it is the same error. (TableImg is the name of the TextureRect)
Invalid set index 'visible' (on base: 'null instance') with value of type 'bool'.

Could it have something to do with trying to call it in the NewGame constructor?
Edit: I moved it to the GameLoop constructor and it works.
Thank you for the help.
