GuiObject
GuiObject is an abstract class (much like BasePart) for a 2D user interface object. It defines all the properties relating to the display of a graphical user interface (GUI) object such as Size and Position. It also has some useful read‑only properties like AbsolutePosition, AbsoluteSize, and AbsoluteRotation.
To manipulate the layout of GUI objects in special ways, you can use a layout structure such as list/flex or grid, and you can style them beyond their core properties through appearance modifiers.
Although it's possible to detect mouse button events on any GUI object using InputBegan and InputEnded, only ImageButton and TextButton have convenient dedicated events such as Activated to detect click/press.
