# ScaleType

## Overview

ScaleType is an Enum that defines how an image is scaled to fit the size of a UI element.

This is used in the ScaleType property of ImageLabel and ImageButton, and determines whether the image is stretched, divided into nine regions, repeated, or scaled while keeping its aspect ratio.
