How do you make a surface gui easier?

Hey, I have a question.

Is there a method to make surface gui easier, like by getting the measurements of the parts you want to put it on, and then working with that gui on a screengui and then transferring it over?

The way I currently know how to do it is very tedious, and I’m constantly changing numbers around trying to see if it would fit.

I’m just trying to check if there is a better method to make surface guis, thank you.

You can change size to scale and make x and y scale 1.

Well, do you know if it’s possible to drag the ui on the surface gui to make it bigger or small as I notice there is this black square and not sure what it is there for

no. im currently trying to make a plugin for it

Set size of the UI element to 1,0,1,0 for it to completely cover the selected side of the part.
For UI Elements that need to only encase a part of it, you can modify the 1’s into something else, (EXAMPLE: Getting a SurfaceGui to touch the bottom of the part, but only going halfway to the side would be 0.5,0,1,0)

Another thing you could do is put the SurfaceGUI Elements into a ScreenGUI in StarterGUI and resize them from there, then once you’re done you put it back into the SurfaceGUI
