How many pixels x pixels should a image be if it is set to fit whole screen in an ImageLabel?

How many pixels x pixels should a image be i fit is set to fit whole screen in an ImageLabel?

I know this question is not really about scripting, but I need to know how many pixels x pixels a image should be if it is set to fit whole screen in ImageLabel because I will use it as a background for a GUI that I am scripting.

I have tried many times, but somehow, when I put the image into the ImageLabel that fills the whole screen, it zooms to the top left corner of the image.

I have also tried messing with the properties of the imagelabel, and nothing seems to work!

Any help is greatly appreciated!

UDim2 (which is the data type used to position and size GUI's) consists of two UDim values. The UDim data type holds two integers, a scale and an offset.

####Taken from the wiki: Scale is a number between 0.0 and 1.0 that is a percentage of the parent object's size. For example, if the parent object is 50 pixels wide, a UDim scale of 0.5 would be 25 pixels wide. 0.5 makes the size cover 50% of it's parent, same as 0.38 is going to cover 38%, 0.85 is going to cover 85%, and so on.

Offset is a specified Integer. This is a non changing value that is factored into the UDim calculation.

For your problem, you want the Image to be scaled to fit the screen. Therefore, if you parent it to a ScreenGui and set the X and Y scales of the UDim2 to 1, then it will be scaled to be the same size as the dimensions of the window.

Assuming 'imageLabel' and 'screenGui' are defined:

imageLabel.Size = UDim2.new(1, 0, 1, 0)
imageLabel.Parent = screenGui
