AbsoluteContentSize / CamvasSize going CRAZY

Help and Feedback Scripting Support

  1. What do you want to achieve? Keep it simple and clear!

I want my scrolling frame to change its canvas to the “AbsoluteCotnentSize” amount once it changes?.

  1. What is the issue? Include screenshots / videos if possible!

My issue is that. When a new frame gets added to my Scrolling Frame the canvas size goes crazy… Here a small clip showing you what i mean(Testing here)


Also. Heres my code im using to test:

wait(7)


script.Parent.UIListLayout:GetPropertyChangedSignal("AbsoluteContentSize"):Connect(function()
	script.Parent.CanvasSize = UDim2.new(script.Parent.UIListLayout.AbsoluteContentSize.X, 0, script.Parent.UIListLayout.AbsoluteContentSize.Y, 0)
end)
  1. What solutions have you tried so far? Did you look for solutions on the Developer Hub?

I have been looking at the dev forum, scripting helpers + Youtube. But i cant seem to find a solution for my problem… Any help would be really appreciated. Because i have been having this problem for a while now :grinning: :grinning:

with udim2 its (scaleX,sizeX,scaleY,sizeY)
absolutecanvassize returns a vector2 in size.
not in scale

however, scrolling frames have a property called “AutomaticCanvasSize”
try using that instead

Fixed it. Had to replace the “UILIstLayout” with a grid layout instead after turning on “AutomaticCanvasSize”. Thanks for the help(:!!
