Gui Positioning not working as intended

Help and Feedback Scripting Support

I’m trying to make simulator popups where when the player collects an item, the popup comes up and it tweens towards the other icon associated with it. The problem is, these icons are parented to different frames( and their position is set using scale), and so when I try to position the popup, it is the complete wrong place. Not only that, but the popup is suddenly disproportionately large. I’ve tried to use absolute position, but I have no idea what I’m doing. Any answers would be appreciated. My code is below:

		local correspondingFrame = Left:FindFirstChild(Icon.Name) or Up:FindFirstChild(Icon.Name)
		if not correspondingFrame then Icon:Destroy() return end
		
		local ClickIcons = correspondingFrame:FindFirstChild("ClickIcons") or correspondingFrame.Frame:FindFirstChild("ClickIcons")
		if not ClickIcons then Icon:Destroy() return end
		
		local correspondingIcon: ImageLabel = ClickIcons:FindFirstChild("Icon")
		if not correspondingIcon then Icon:Destroy() return end
		
		local correspondingAbsolutePos = correspondingIcon.AbsolutePosition
		local correspondingPos: UDim2 = correspondingIcon.Position
		local goalPos = UDim2.new(correspondingPos.X.Scale, correspondingAbsolutePos.X, correspondingPos.Y.Scale, correspondingAbsolutePos.Y)
		
		local originalSize = correspondingFrame.Size
		Icon.Size = originalSize + UDim2.new(0.25, 0, 0.25, 0)
		
		local tween = TweenService:Create(Icon, TweenInfo.new(0.65), {Position = goalPos})
		tween:Play()

You can get their offsets with GuiObject.AbsolutePosition and converting the GuiObject.Position to vector2.

Why do I need to I convert it to a vector2 when gui’s use Udim2?

I’ve got it semi working now. It uses the absolute positions and absolute size of the corresponding gui and then sets the size and position using the offset. However, one of the ui’s is too small. They all have the same anchor point, so I don’t think that’s the problem.

		local correspondingAbsolutePos = correspondingIcon.AbsolutePosition
		local correspondingSize = correspondingIcon.AbsoluteSize
		
		local goalPos = UDim2.new(0, correspondingAbsolutePos.X, 0, correspondingAbsolutePos.Y+Y_OFFSET)
		local originalSize = UDim2.new(0, correspondingSize.X, 0, correspondingSize.Y)
		
		Icon.Size = originalSize + UDim2.new(0, 0.25, 0, 0.25)

Here’s what that looks like for reference:
