Alright, so I have a screengui in startergui, then a frame, then an imagelabel.
The imagelabel is this size:
{0, 100}, {0, 100}
So the way I learn it, 1 - 0.1 = 0.9 0.9/2 = 0.45
So I should put the position at..
{0.45 0}, {0.45, 0}
To centre it. Right?
Well it's not working, and it is a bit to the left of the centre.
The frame is at 1, 0 1, 0
So that shouldn't be an issue.
Am I doing something wrong?
If you want to center your gui on screen with the size {0, 100}, {0, 100}, you should use the following formula for position:
{0.5, -(width / 2)}, {0.5, -(height / 2)}
{0.5 - (xScaleSize / 2), -(xOffsetSize / 2)}, {0.5 - (yScaleSize / 2), -(yOffsetSize / 2)}
In this case, it would be
{0.5, -50}, {0.5, -50}
A better way is to do something like this:
local gui = script.Parent
local size = gui.AbsoluteSize
gui.Position = UDim2.new(0.5, -size.X/2, 0.5, -size.Y/2)
it perfectly centers the Gui, and it will always be centered on every screen.
What would the position be instead of scripting the position. I have a button which moves and I want to know the position, so that I can position it to what the script is saying.
wait what

I've downvoted your answer, because while this is the simplified formula, you should also give the generalized formula (to incorporate scale AND offset), which is UDim2.new(0.5-xScaleSize/2, -xOffsetSize/2, 0.5-yScaleSize/2,-yOffsetSize/2). Edit it to receive my upvote.
Ohhhhh kill em
