As a Roblox developer, it is currently impossible to hide the useless white bar at the bottom of studio
If Roblox is able to address your issue, how would it improve your game and/or your development experience?
We would have more screen space to work with. At the moment this white bar is a waste of space and AFAIK does nothing.
If we were able to move the bar such that it could be in line with the command bar or just toggle it entirely that would be great.
The space is used for a progress bar when loading a place/asset or publishing it to the website. Rather than removing it, adding some useful information would probably be a better alternative.
Alternatively if we could move and toggle the bar so e.g. it could be placed along side the command bar that would be good too.
I personally have never looked at this bar, just output for what I publish something.
Updated OP with that.
Why does it bother you? Even on my 720p monitor this space is negligible.
It’s still wasted space, I’d rather have more room for making my GUIs or coding.
You’d only get 2-3 extra lines in the script editor. When you need more visible lines, is it only 3 more the majority of the time? You probably need way more, so this wouldn’t help – collapsing unnecessary blocks of code would get you a lot more space.
As for UI, how tall is that bar? 30 px? How will that little space help? You need to account for variable screen size anyway when designing UI, so precise screen size shouldn’t matter.
There’s a setting somewhere in the studio settings that’ll make it display some information (CPU usage, scheduler rate, …) on the right side of it (if it’s the blank space I think it is)
I almost forgot that’s an option, literally had it enables for years
I’ve given my reasons, if you don’t agree with them that’s up to you.

All of that can be seen elsewhere now if I’m not mistaken?
Uhh… you won’t really gain anything by it being removed…
File->Settings…->Studio->Advanced->Show Diagnostics Bar
That is the one that shows fps, memory and other usage stats on the right side of this white space.
