Controller UI navigation hotbar/backpack icons begin to increase in size when continuously clicked with quick succession with a mouse

When you have a controller connected to your device, opening up your Backpack allows you to use UI navigation to move around in your Backpack. When you interact with a Tool’s slot, it does a slight animation where the slot bounces in size, becoming bigger then back to it’s original size. This functionality typically has a debounce to (presumably) prevent you from making the Tool icon massive.


However, if you also have a mouse connected, using the mouse still retains the controller’s functionality in the Backpack UI. The mouse does not have any debounce for the bouncing animation, allowing you to spam click the Tool and make that specific slot in your hotbar bigger than intended.


Step by step reproduction process:

  1. Have a controller and a mouse connected to your device
  2. Open up your Backpack by either using the backquote / tilde key on your keyboard, by opening the controller menu and pressing on the Backpack button or by using the Roblox top bar UI
  3. Using either your controller joystick or your keyboard, move around to any slot in your Backpack
  4. Start spam clicking the slot you currently have highlighted with UI navigation

This happens in both studio and in-game

I doubt my hardware is what’s causing this, but just in case:
I have an AMD Ryzen 5 4600G CPU with Integrated Graphics and 12GB of Memory
I am on a Windows 10 Home operating system

Add a cool down and show the script because my guess is the issue lies there.

This is an issue with the built in Roblox system, not anything I personally made
