Greater GUI customisation

[KossmoZ]

Currently, as devs, we are limited to what exactly we can do when it comes to designing (G)UIs. Despite there being a few options, it seems focus has primary been put into over ui control interfaces as opposed to customisation.

Few examples of a greater range would be-

• Custom / More Font options.

• ‘ClipDescendants’ working on more than just a square shape, with this we’ll have a greater ability to over lay and apply masks to our GUIs.

• The capability to customise the awful preset ROBLOX shapes. Currently we can insert a rounded image; but only as blue, grey, or Black and red. Limiting us greatly.
  (( Although there is the plug-in Roundify))

• Capability to tween // animate individual text box texts: transitions if you will.

Those are just a few ideas I’ve thought off, please apply more if you have your own.

There’s already been requests for some of the features you listed

Custom fonts

It’s a pain to create a font script that generates a custom font with images; any time when we’ll get an efficient way to upload and use custom fonts? This would be VERY helpful and help with the diversity within games.

Clips descendants does not work with rotated frames

Please fix this. Also, if this has already been reported, I tried finding it but couldn’t.

Improved ClipDescendants with Descendant Masking

The Feature As a Roblox developer, I would quite like the ability to improve my UI even more by having additional settings that ClipDescendants can follow. These settings, would allow me to make my UI at the same level as now, but without having to use specific methods to bypass it. Currently, ClipDescendants is only limited to a rectangular box round the frame that the descendants cannot be seen outside of, but I’d like further customisation for this feature, allowing us to create custom “mas…

Please support the existing requests

The capability to customise the awful preset ROBLOX shapes.

Roblox has several shapes in their texture folders that we can use in games, one of those is a rounded rectangle

However I find it very much a hassle to constantly go through the textures folder just to find something that can be used, so I support this request.

Roblox also released a survey regarding UI tools recently, but these most likely will take a while to get added.
