Scrolling Frame FPS drops

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

There’s a problem where if you have too much imagelabels in a scrollingframe, your fps drops when you scroll.

This is my set up: (Menu (frame) → Characterscrolling (scrollingframe) → imagelabels under this scrollingframe)

Solution is probably to only make visible the ones on the user’s screen, but make the rest invisible. I need insight on how to do this with scrollingframe?

I don’t know why it lagging. I used to make a GUI and had similar amounts of imagelabs and scroolingframe but I didn’t have lags. Maybe try lowering the image resolution a bit.

Did you have more than 1,000 imagelabels?
Even so, I want to know how to only show the labels that the user is viewing and making the rest invisible.

This should help you out:

function isClipped(uiObject)
	local parent = uiObject.Parent
	local boundryTop = parent.AbsolutePosition
	local boundryBot = boundryTop + parent.AbsoluteSize

	local top = uiObject.AbsolutePosition
	local bot = top + uiObject.AbsoluteSize

	local function cmpVectors(a, b) -- Compare is a is above or to the left of b
		return (a.X < b.X) or (a.Y < b.Y)
	end

	return cmpVectors(top, boundryTop) or cmpVectors(boundryBot, bot)
end

game["Run Service"].Stepped:Connect(function()
	for i,v in pairs(script.Parent:GetChildren()) do
		if v:IsA("Frame") then
			if not isClipped(v) then
				print("visible")
				v.Visible = true
			else
				print("invisible")
				v.Visible = false
			end
		end
	end
end)

Thank you. Trying to put this script in, what is ‘script.Parent’ is that a scrollingframe?

Then in the clipped function what is the uiObject.Parent is that the scrollingframe?

script.Parent is the scrolling frame
v is the frame

Thank you. The script works. Only problem now is that the scrolling bar disappears due to the absolutecontentsize script below

which causes the scrolling frame to adapt.

so because the the frames under the scrollingframe are invisible i can’t scroll down to make the others visible due to the adapter.

If i remove the code: it doesnt scale according to its contents

change it so transparency changes and not the visibility

will the transparency help with the fps drop that’s caused by 1000+ imagelabels in the scrollingframe?

Objects are not rendered if they are outside the bounds of either the screen, or the closest ancestor with ClipsDescendants being true. This script would also interfere with being able to use the Visible property normally on all of those frames.

what do you suggest to be done?

There are too many ImageLabels. I suggest removing some. No matter what you do, there are still too many to handle.

Games like bee simulator dealt with stuff like this, so I’m sure there’s a solution out there
