How would I compare these two values?

if game:GetService("TextService"):GetTextSize(Recipes[ItemName][1], 14, Enum.Font.SourceSansBold, Vector2.new(Frame.LineOne.TextLabel.Size.X, Frame.LineOne.TextLabel.Size.Y)).X > Frame.LineOne.TextLabel.Size.X
Better lining display

Basically, :GetTextSize() returns a Vector2 and I’m not too sure how to compare that to a number
Shouldn’t Vector2.X return a number in the first place?

Here’s my output error

attempt to compare UDim and number

If you are in need of documentation here you go

TextLabel.Size.X is Scale and Offset, need to specify which one.

The UDim is TextLabel.Size.X, not the return from GetTextSize. Try TextLabel.AbsoluteSize.X instead for the raw number of pixels; the main size property has both Scale and Offset.
