I'm trying to update a GUI, and for the values, I'm using, I am doing some math right before applying the. Problem is, every time I try and multiply two vector 2's together, I get "0,0" when I print it out. I honestly don't know whats going on, this is my first time really touching on GUI's so I'm totally out of my depth.

How do you multiply Vector 2 values?

Vector2 consists of Vector2.X and Vector2.Y. You can multiply them by doing
local oldvector = Vector2.new(5,5)
local newvector = Vector2.new(oldvector.X *3, oldvector.Y * 3)
print(newvector) -- (15,15)
You can also multiply vectors together
local oldvector = Vector2.new(5,5)
local multiplyvector = Vector2.new(3,3)
local newvector = oldvector * newvector
print(newvector) -- (15,15)
Multiplying a vector by a number will also multiply each one by that number
local oldvector = Vector2.new(5,5)
local newvector = oldvector * 3
print(newvector) -- (15,15)

Although, you did answer the question I asked, I just dident ask the right question for the project im doing.

No problem, its easy to get confused with coding, there is so many variables and values. Nonetheless glad you got it working!
Have you perhaps tried Vector2 * Vector2?
If you have good job, if your result is then still 0,0 that means that either the left or the right value contains 0 values, (since y'know, 0 * something is always 0)

Thanks for the help guys, but I just figured out that Im working with UDim2 values, and not Vector 2 values, Im very new to doing Gui's, so thanks for you replies but I don't think they would work with UDim2 values.
