Improve TextLabel text quality?

[Jhettblocks789 (redsquare)]

I have an issue with my TextLabel. It appears as quite pixelated because I have enabled RichText, as the default text isn’t large enough for what I am aiming for.

Is there a different way of scaling the text up without needing RichText?

RichText lower text’s resolution. You have to stick with low quality or low font size. Or you can use images.

Well that’s an annoying limitation. After all these years the largest text size is still minuscule lol.
Thanks for letting me know.

It indeed is. One way you could fix this WITHOUT having to use images (I just thought of it now btw) is to use surface appearance on a part which is in front of the camera at all times.

Here is a post to make a part the size of the camera.

How do I resize a part big enough to cover a whole screen?

The number of studs that would cover the screen depends on the camera’s field of view and the distance you want to put the covering part in front of the camera. From the Developer Hub: [image] So using this property, you can find how many studs would cover the screen vertically at a certain distance from the camera: math.tan( math.rad(cam.FieldOfView/2) ) * 2 * forwardOffsetDistance And then the viewport size gives you the height-to-width aspect ratio of the screen, so the width would be (…

Example:

Script:

local p = Instance.new("Part")
p.Parent = workspace
p.Anchored = true
p.CanQuery = false
p.CanTouch = false
p.CanCollide = false
p.CastShadow = false
p.Transparency = 0.5

local cam = workspace.CurrentCamera
local rs = game:GetService("RunService")

rs.RenderStepped:Connect(function()
	local pos = cam	:ViewportPointToRay(cam.ViewportSize.X/2,cam.ViewportSize.Y/2,1)
	local height = math.tan(math.rad(cam.FieldOfView/2)) * 2
	local width = (cam.ViewportSize.X / cam.ViewportSize.Y) * height
	p.CFrame = CFrame.new(pos.Origin,pos.Origin+pos.Direction)
	p.Size = Vector3.new(width,height,1)
end)

(Manually added a surface GUI, make sure to set it’s pixels per stud property according to your needs.)
