How do I position a frame to the mouse's position?

I can't find anything about what I'm doing wrong. When I use this, the frame is not positioned to where the mouse is pointing. How do I fix this?

player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
mouse = player:GetMouse()
mouse.Move:connect(function()
Frame.Position = UDim2.new(0,mouse.x,0,mouse.y)
end)

My problem was that the frame was inside of another frame that was smaller than the player's screen. Jesse1240 59 — 6y

You may want to add a loop

while wait() do
player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
mouse = player:GetMouse()
Frame.Position = UDim2.new(0,mouse.x,0,mouse.y)
end

Please remember to define what Frame means

Lua is case sensitive. There is no property of the mouse named x nor y, but there are properties named X and Y. So, to fix this, do the following fix.

player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
mouse = player:GetMouse()
mouse.Move:connect(function()
Frame.Position = UDim2.new(0,mouse.X,0,mouse.Y)
end)

This should have been an easy fix if you looked at the output. Also, read my bio, otherwise I may not help you on another question.

Still does the same thing for me no matter if it's capitalized or not. It wont position the GUI to exactly where the mouse is pointing. Jesse1240 59 — 6y

Capitalization in lua/any other programming language is VERY important, as doing Print() will error, but not print(). hiimgoodpack 2009 — 6y
