Hello again, thanks to a great suggestion on my recent issues, I'm now trying to configure everything to work with this method, at the moment I'm trying to use TextService to get going, and one thing I'm trying to print for validation is TextService:GetTextSize(), I believe I've formatted the required parameters correctly, if not please let me know. This is what I have

local VectorFillSize = ChatLabel.AbsoluteSize.X, ChatLabel.AbsoluteSize.Y
local vector2 = TestService:GetTextSize(ChattedMessage, 5, "ArialBold", VectorFillSize)
print(vector2)


Console replies Unable to cast double to Vector2 Please help me out!

You need to create a Vector2 value from your ChatLabel's AbsoluteSize.

local VectorFillSize = Vector2.new(ChatLabel.AbsoluteSize.X,ChatLabel.AbsoluteSize.Y)
local ReturnSize = TestService:GetTextSize(ChattedMessage, 5, "ArialBold", VectorFillSize)
print(ReturnSize)
--i wouldnt name your variable vector2, as it may cause confusion between the actual Vector2 variable. just remember that :GetTextSize() returns a Vector2, so thats what ReturnSize is


See how the frameSize argument is a Vector2 value on this page.
