What is better for positioning GUIs, offset or scale?

Hello. I've always had a little bit of trouble with offset since that it seems to go in weird places. So how do I use offset and which is better in comparison when positioning GUIs?

Neither one is "Better", they are used for different purposes. Offset is pixels, while Scale is a percentage of the current screen size.

It is always better to make your GUIs work with any screen size, but that doesn't necessarily mean that you should exclusively use Scale over Offset, or vice-versa.

Thank you. I now understand the difference more and I'll continue experimenting with offset.

Generally, when I made GUIs, I position them with Scale and size them with Offset, that way if someone has a higher resolution monitor the GUI won't be huge.
