I'm making a shop script where if you click on a mannequin it would return a card UI made from a billboard GUI that would show information on the clothing. Instead of making an X button to close the card, I want anywhere outside of the card to be able to close it. Because it is a BillboardGUI i cannot place a big invisible text button across the screen to cause this, unless its possible to put a billboardGUI over a screenGUI. What should I do?

How do I make anywhere outside of the GUI the exit button?

One way to do it could be to get the mouse and call the Button1Down event and once the player clicks somewhere that isn't a GUI then it will fire, then you can call the code you want.
I'm not going to write the full code for you, but here is a general example of what I mean.
repeat wait() until game.Players.LocalPlayer
local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local mouse = player:GetMouse()
local frame = script.Parent.Parent.Frame -- your frame goes here
mouse.Button1Down:Connect(function()
if frame.Visible == true then
frame.Visible = false
end
end)

thanks, this helps a lot
add in: "if frame.Visible == true then frame.Visible = false else frame.Visible == true end" and then it can work for an on and off switch.
