You can do this by using scale on everything inside of the BillboardGui.

Set all text containers to TextScaled = true
Set all UI elements’ sizes to use scale (ex. {4,0},{1,0})

I think that’s everything.

IIRC, 1 in scale is equal to 1 stud when it comes to billboard guis.

How do i set the ???
I am a noob to this type of UI.

Everything like frames, text labels, text buttons, text boxes, image labels etc…, ensure they all use scale and no offset which is the second argument in UDim2 pairs.

So basically, on X, change Scale to 4 and offset to 0. On Y, change Scale to 1 and offset to 0.

THERE is no four! what do you mean???

I know. I am saying to change the scale property on the x axis to use 4, and the offset property on the x axis to use 0, and the scale property on the y axis to use 1 and the offset property on the y axis to use 0.

Doing that messed it up very badly… Please help me fix it.

Yes, you also have to change the TextScaled property of all your labels to true as well as make every label use scale instead of offset.

I am so comfused right now Please show me this in a vid or something. Or download mine and fix it for me pls.

What @7z99 says is that everything must be in Scale, make the Gui return to its initial size and use this plugin, select all the descendants of the Gui and in the window that will open the plugin press Scale, then change the size of the Gui to Scale too.

Left one uses scale, right uses offset

Your properties which use offset (second argument in each of the pairs):
