Get Ready for Updated Experience Controls

Do you have an estimate of when Self View’s redesign is coming? I was kind of hoping it would be out before the new controls released to everyone. SocialService’s SelfView methods still don’t work with the current design.

New self-view should be rolling out within the next couple days!

We were hoping to include it sooner, but ran into some issues late in the cycle. All taken care of now, you can look forward to the new design soon!

I can also confirm that SocialService will be functional again with the new window.

Will self view ever be a togglable feature via SetCoreGuiEnabled? It truly is kinda useless in multiple games that I am working on. Either there is no need for self view or there is no character to be shown.

I don’t understand why disabling it is no longer supported.

The problem is it’s forced in every voice-enabled experience, even if camera communication is disabled.

Ideally, Self View should only be there if camera communication is enabled (independent of voice), I don’t know why this isn’t the case.

So the only way to get rid of it at the moment is to disable both camera and voice communication in your game.

So that was the problem… I guess this will be fixed in the future, probably and oversight.

While I do like the concept of Self View, I believe it should be fully customizable just as originally intended, evident from the deprecated Enum.

I’ve also expressed multiple times that I dislike any forced UI, especially with the addition of the new Experience Control menu (TopBar). I truly hope the support from SetCoreGuiEnabled returns some day.

New self view window ended up getting delayed again due to some more bugs :skull:

We’re really trying to get it out asap… but every time it looks like we’re ready to launch, something new pops up :frowning:

I think we’ve got it this time, though! Stay tuned!

Was really looking forward to this :sob: at least you guys are ironing out all the issues before release to avoid it being messy.

Hope it’s worth the wait!

New Self View is out!

  • Starts in the top-left corner of the screen
  • Buttons are much clearer, UX is less confusing
  • Maximizing now just extends the height of the window
  • Green dot is clearer
  • Works with character animation again
  • Great improvements overall

Unfortunately it doesn’t work with SocialService yet, it just needs FFlagChromeSupportSocialService to be flipped

Can this please get addressed?

I still don’t have the Camera Avatar Animation feature toggle setting on my main account and some of my older alt accounts even though I believe I should be able to.

at RDC 2024, while showing off the new Video Captures feature, i noticed the icons for Experience Chat, Toggle Microphone, and the ones in the Hamburger Menu have been completely redesigned. When will it come? It just looks nice, especially that Self View & Emotes icon, they look happy!

edit: did i notice ui blurring???

edit 2: still waiting for a response :pensive:

Do you plan to make accesibility options for PC and all platforms in general somewhere in the future of the Experience Controls? For example:

  • The option to hide the Roblox Icon and Experience chat icons on PC?

On PC, there are keybinds for both of these buttons. These are unneccecary and block the screen and should be left optional.

  • Change the size of the Experience Controls on all platforms?

This is beneficial for

  1. Accesibility.
  2. Saving Space.
  • Hide the “turn on voice chat” button?

I turned off voice chat for a reason. If you can atleast explain why this is a thing, it would be helpful.

  • Customize which buttons show up in the hamburger menu.

This is probably the most useful thing here. The hamburger menu is cluttered with almost every button imaginable, and players should be able to customize it instead of developers alone.

As an example, I may prefer to use the Roblox Menu to Reset, and the hamburger menu to toggle Voice Chat.

The reset button will serve as extra clutter when I want to use the hamburger menu, and the Voice Chat button will take up extra space on my screen in the Experience controls. The same thing goes if I want to use voice chat through the roblox menu.

We should be able to choose what shows up in the Experience controls, and Hamburger menu. Mobile is the platform it was made for and extending the Hamburger Menu still takes up the whole screen on Mobile. Adding customization to which button shows up where will help with this.

  • Disable Self-View.

Not sure why this is forced but this should be left optional.
