Mouse cursor textlabel offcenter

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

I tried making something to overlay with text, but it is displaying off center, and I do not know why. THis is what I’m using:

local Update

script.Parent.MouseEnter:Connect(function()
	local t = game:GetService("TweenService"):Create(script.Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent.inset.TextLabel, TweenInfo.new(.3), {BackgroundTransparency = .5, TextTransparency = 0})
	t:Play()
	Update = true
end)

script.Parent.MouseLeave:Connect(function()
	local t = game:GetService("TweenService"):Create(script.Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent.inset.TextLabel, TweenInfo.new(.3), {BackgroundTransparency = 1, TextTransparency = 1})
	t:Play()
	Update = false
end)

local function OffsetToScale(Offset)
	local ViewPortSize = workspace.Camera.ViewportSize
	return ({Offset[1] / ViewPortSize.X * workspace.Value.Value, 0, Offset[2] / ViewPortSize.Y * workspace.Value.Value, 0})
end

local Mouse = game.Players.LocalPlayer:GetMouse()


Mouse.Move:Connect(function()
	print(OffsetToScale({Mouse.X, Mouse.Y}))
	script.Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent.Parent.inset.TextLabel.Position = UDim2.new(OffsetToScale({Mouse.X, Mouse.Y})[1], 0, OffsetToScale({Mouse.X, Mouse.Y})[3], 0) 
end)

(No that is not the path I’m using, I forgot to change it after a test and I’m not bothered to right now.

Thank you

Make sure your anchor point is set correctly. Also, what is workspace.Value?

#3

Hang on do you really need the OffsetToScale function? Cant you just use offset, or am I not seeing something?

#4

Offset will only optimize it from the Studio viewport, scale works universally for the most part

That was a test I forgot to remove. It’s 3am, I should probably sleep instead of code
