Issue with enlarging gui on hover

Not every single gui. Just the ones that are scalable that you don’t want to move around

#22

If I change the anchor point will it change my actual position

#23

In a script, probably. Outside of the game, no.
Think of AnchorPoint as the origin, and your button is being dilated from the origin.

#24

My button already has a set position so if I set the anchor point to 0.5,0.5 will it change the pos?

#25

Make the Anchor point .5,.5
You will see it will change the Position, Thats okay just bring it back to the original position

#26

If you mean the button itself, no. The anchor point, yes.

#27

as seen in the video why is the gui button a bit to the right?

#28

Set the anchor point of the Gui object to the exact center beforehand (and don’t change it) so it doesn’t move when you resize it.

Set a variable at the beginning of the main script for the default size of the Gui, so that it’s easier to make the size exactly what you want.

DO:

local OriginalSize = UDim2.new('DEFAULT SIZE')
local NewSize = UDim2.new('HOVER SIZE')

Gui.MouseEnter:Connect(function()
      Gui.Size = NewSize
end)
Gui.MouseLeave:Connect(function()
      Gui.Size = OriginalSize
end)

DON’T:

Gui.MouseEnter:Connect(function()
      Gui.Size = Gui.Size + UDim2.new()
end)
Gui.MouseLeave:Connect(function()
      Gui.Size = Gui.Size - UDim2.New()
end)

Edit: Also don’t set the original size variable as Gui.Size, because it will update as you resize it.
