@@rylyyxy I made a comment earlier, might as well copy and paste it.

Fun Fact: Scrolling frames have a property called "Automatic canvas size" or something along those lines, that automatically resizes the canvas without needing any scripting. You can choose between: X, XY, Y, or None. (This does NOT add on to the current canvas size, so keep that in mind) Pages are cool
Tip for UIaspectRatio: Divide the property absolute size X by the property absolute size Y in the calculator will give you the ratio for the AspectRatio
That's basically what a UIAspectRatio constraint is. It keeps the ratio between the width and height consistent and proportional between all screen sizes. Ratio is division so you dividde the width and the height.
@@ransu6852 lazy a- (sorry 💀) Fun fact you can put expressions inside of properties in Roblox. You don't have to get a calculator just type it in. AbsoluteSizeX/AbsoluteSizeY For example just write 450/30 or something and it works
Tip for the scrolling frame size: You don't need to script anything, just set the scrolling frame canvas size to {0,0}{0,0} and put automatic size to Y
5:47 : Theres an easier trick for both that works for both UIlistlayout or UIgridlayout. Start by selecting the scrolling frame and setting the canvas size to 0 and then set the automatic canvas to Y, XY, or X depending on what direction your scrolling frame scrolls into. This way the scrolling framw wont need any script and is much more percise than this method.
tip for the scrollingframe thing: there is actually an automaticsizing for the canvassize so just set that to Y and put a uilistlayout or smth and its gonna do the job just fine (make sure to set canvassize Y the smallest u can too cuz automaticsizing only increases but doesnt decrease)
@@Aadiyan1 ye but you could also be smart (like me) and make ur own padding (invisible frames) ok ye that idea sucks but id rather do that then a localscript tbh
theres a property called "automatic ???? scaling ????" on the scrolling frame. if you set it to Y then it will do that automatically without a script! (set the scrolling size to 0,0,0,0) for it to work
UIPageLayout is literally a livesaver, I'm the owner of a game with 2 different shops, and I'm also the most advanced scripter out of the team, but I still kind of suck. So thank you!
For the Fixing Progress Bars With UICorner I always did a tween for offset of a color, which was not fun, but this is so much better in the video thanks dude👍👍
Im sure scrolling frames have properties that when configured correctly if the elements within the canvas don't exceed the boundary it will basically be a standard frame and when you add an element that exceeds the boundary the canvas size updates and the scroll bar becomes visible there is no need for a script to do that
wanted to point this out, in the script for the scrolling frames instead of getting the playergui by doing game.Players.LocalPlayer.PlayerGui you can just do script.Parent example: Explorer -ScreenGui --Frame ---LocalScript ETC Script local PlayerGui = script.Parent.Parent.Parent
Please fix the corners of the progress bar scaling down when it gets small. It's such a simple fix; all you have to do is offset the bar to the X axis twice the size of the corners. Then in the script, you can then just add this size amount onto the X size result from your calculation.
6:30 just put the automatic scrolling size to true? (Don't remember if it worked that way, gonna have to check home and correct this but there is a setting for it.)
There is also a Reclass plugin which you can use to convert the frame into a canvas group with all of its properties but I'm not sure if it is still free.
2. Or just enable clip descendants? I don't see why its necessary to use canvas group 3. I don't really use UIAspectRatioConstraint because I don't really understand it so I may be wrong here but can't you just use scale to achieve the same result? 5. Just use automatic canvas size?
No, scales don’t achieve the same result. There are many different screen sizes so scales can vary. Using the constraint makes the UI look similar for all screens
really useful, didn't even know that canvas group thing existed, nice video!
same!

I did know that canvas group existed, but since I was a scripter and not UI designer, never knew how to do it, this vid really helped out
Ikr that is so Underrated I see many Top Notch Quality games like Even Mimic for Example having that Health Bar clipping.

When i saw the page layout trick, i see tons and tons of possibilities with this without having to script a single thing :D

Me too. Did you learn it yourself like me or did you learn it from someone?
For automatically updating de canvas size is also a property on de scrolling frame
5:59 - You can set the canvas size automatically by setting AutomaticCanvasSize to Y, you may have to set the canvas size to 0

for the scrollingframe you can use the automatic canvas size option, just set it to 'Y', and set the canvas size to 0

thank you very much, from Brazil 😄
wanted to point this out, in the script for the scrolling frames instead of getting the playergui by doing game.Players.LocalPlayer.PlayerGui you can just do script.Parent
example:
Explorer
-ScreenGui
--Frame
---LocalScript
ETC
Script
local PlayerGui = script.Parent.Parent.Parent
for auto canvas size change the frame's size contrasts to xx if the scrolling canvas based on Y or the opposite to make it work
God bless you guys!

They do
AutomaticCanvasSize doesnt work for me 90% of the time
@@epixerty no, it applies always, he does it wrong then, always worked for me
It does work, set it to 0,0,0,0
Bruh this is SO helpful ❤👍
for UIAspectRatioConstraint (and scaling of UI), you should use AutoScale or AutoScaleLite
so useful, how do you have frame outline with ui corner?
i think there is a property in scrollingframes to automatically change the size
for the scrolling frame canva size use automatic canva size and put the canva size to 0.0.0.0
Please fix the corners of the progress bar scaling down when it gets small. It's such a simple fix; all you have to do is offset the bar to the X axis twice the size of the corners. Then in the script, you can then just add this size amount onto the X size result from your calculation.

Crazy how I’ve been designing UI for 3 years and haven’t come across these…
u read my comment, tyyyyy
It's better to use UIGradient with Transparency sequence and Offset property to clip the frame, instead of using CanvasGroup
The frame size would be scaled 1,1. and Offset X would be in a range of scale 0-1 (ex 0.5 offset clips 50% of the frame)
i don’t build in studio so this will be very important for me
U should use :ChildAdded and :ChildRemoved event for the local script, using renderstepped for everything is terribly inefficient and expensive
