Gui object resizes dependant on distance

[Stephex_s (Stephex)]

I have a TextLabel object, which I want to resize depending on the distance between 2 Vector3s. Nothing else really, how would I begin? (As in the text label is very small if far and text label is big if close)

What exactly is this for? Is the gui object on the screen or on the part via a SurfaceGui?

Maybe you just want to find the distance between two Vector3s and set the Size of the TextLabel to the distance?

If you want the distance of two vectors, this is how:

local v1 = ...
local v2 = ...
local dist = (v2 - v1).Magnitude

How to measure distance between two points

You can write your topic however you want, but you need to answer these questions: What do you want to achieve? I want to get the exact distance between two points to spwan a rope with exactly that Length What is the issue? Include screenshots / videos if possible! [image] The magnitude doesn’t give me the exact distance What solutions have you tried so far? Did you look for solutions on the Developer Hub? local magnitude = (attachment0.Position - attachment1).Magnitude

I’ve been working on a caption system like found in the game Baldi’s Basics Classic Remastered, and I want a “caption” to size down if getting futher and size up if getting closer. I know how to get Distance, I just don’t know how to implement it correctly into a GUI Object.

Ah, I see. The Size property of the TextLabel is a UDim2. I think you might be able to multiply a UDim2 by the distance to increase/decrease the size. (But make sure to divide the distance by some factor, otherwise it would be to large)

Or, you can use UDim2.fromOffset and pass the distance to it. You’ll probably need to set inital sizes as well

TL.Size = UDim2.fromOffset(100 + dist, 20 + dist)

Will try something like this, and see if I can get it working well.
