What are offsets in gui?

[Adaks]

Hey, what are offsets in gui, and why can’t roblox just scale them automatically for every device, instead of having to change the values of offsets to 0 every single time you add a new ui element - it just seems very frustrating to do, and sometimes you forget to change the offset and you have to resize it again

You could use this plugin. makes life a lot easier

[Plugin] AutoScale Lite for GUIs - Scale your UI

[AutoScale Lite Banenr] Overview The plugin has two main functions. Converting a UI element’s size/position to Scale or Offset, and the auto scaling feature. The Add Constraint feature makes use of the UIAspectRatioConstraint which ensures that your UI retains it’s size on all screen sizes. You can add this constraint to your UI manually but my plugin does the calculating of the AspectRatio property by dividing the AbsoluteSizes so you don’t have to! [image] How do I use it hmmmmm?

I have no idea why they even have offset, I have never used it.

Are you referring to Offset as in like… UDim2.new(XScale, XOffset, YScale, YOffset)? If so, Offset is literally the only way I go about scaling my UIs.
