Custom Topbar Buttons Module - Version 4.0.1

Custom topbar buttons module Made by Stonetr03

My Topbar buttons module just adds more buttons to the top bar and you can configure the buttons and sizes. I also made this because I found Topbar+ a big hard to learn / Use

In 4.0.0 Update you can Configure Buttons, Example :

Topbar Buttons Module v4.0.0 API :

Adding a button

Adding a button


Module:Add("Button Name",ImageId, Left Side of Topbar true/false, Configurization Table See Configuring a Buttons appearance for more info)

This will return the button property, that can now allow you to call Button.MouseButton1Clicked or something like that

If there was an error or one of the required properties isn’t filled out properly, the function will return false

The first property is the button name

The second property is the ImageId which will show up on the topbar

The third property is if you want it on the left side or the right side of the topbar, setting this value to true will make it on the left side, setting this value to false will make the button be on the right side of the topbar

The fourth property is an optional configuration table that calls Module:ConfigButton() for you so your code is cleaner.

Example

local TopbarModule = require(game.ReplicatedStorage.TopbarModule)

	ScaleType = Enum.ScaleType.Stretch,
	SliceCenter = Rect.new(Vector2.new(10,10),Vector2.new(10,10)),

	IconColor = Color3.fromRGB(0,0,255)

This should become useful for me as TopBar+ is a bit hard to learn.

Absolutely loving this! Thank you for the clear documentation as well.
Maybe in the future you can try to implement it so you can set your own button themes?

I might use this, as Topbar+ is complicated as @GamersInternational said.

I just added the ability to customize the buttons, but you have to get the new code from GitHub as I forgot to update the Roblox model and I will update it as soon as I can. I’m thinking about adding a UiGradent setting next update.

Edit :
Just updated the Roblox model

Why should this be used instead of Topbar+? Topbar+ is feature-rich and isn’t hard to adopt once you read its thorough documentation. What does this module provide that Topbar+ doesn’t?

Topbar+ has more features and I am planning on adding more features that Topbar+ has, I made this module as i found Topbar+ hard to learn and there Documentation at the time didn’t make since when i tried to use it in my game, so i made this module that had basic functionality for adding topbar buttons, And i am planning on adding more features and customize propertys in future updates as well as the customization features I added in the update that I released today.

Am i the only one?

If there’s features, tutorials, documentation, etc which is confusing for TopbarPlus please feel free to let us know (at the post, at the repository, you can DM me, etc). Our goal is to make it as accessible and understandable to developers of all levels, so your feedback really helps in achieving that!

If we like your suggestion/feedback, you’ll find more often or not an update introduced within hours or days of the request.

Also note: working towards a singular, widely-adopted community application is beneficial to everyone, as developers only have to work and become familiar with one API, while the application itself can have time devoted to improving and fixing it.

Hey is there a way to add text instead of an Image to your button?

2 Likes

Yo, how could one make the button play a sound? I’m trying to make it play a click-sound, but it doesn’t seem to be working. Could anyone tell me how I could do this?

Anyone know how to do this? I seriously need it

Yo, you should add button transparency
