How do make UIListlayout fill from top

[Lokispades]

I’m having issues with UIListlayout, I want it to fill in from top meaning when a new textbox enters it will move the previous textbox downwards and the new one will stay on top but it completely the opposite at the moment, the new textbox enters from the bottom and old one stays at the top.

How it needs to be:

How it is at the moment:

Is there a way to achieve this

use the LayoutOrder property for this, when creating a new textbox set its LayoutOrder to the amount of textboxes parented to the scrollingframe + 1

How would you go on about that?

[CZXPEK (czo)]

TextBox.LayoutOrder = (#ScrollingFrame:GetChildren()+1)

[Lokispades]

but increasing the layoutorder still means going down the list

[Chrystian_PPP (Chrystian)]

try TextBox.LayoutOrder = -(#ScrollingFrame:GetChildren()+1)

Fixed it, I used the same method but reversed it so

this would be the solution:

TextBox.LayoutOrder = (1-#ScrollingFrame:GetChildren())

[Lokispades]

yep this works too, I’ll mark these as solution.

thank you @CZXPEK @Chrystian_PPP for helping with this issue.

Both of these lines of code work:

-- Both of these do the same calculation. Decreases the layoutOrder by the number of children in instance and +1.
TextBox.LayoutOrder = -(#ScrollingFrame:GetChildren()+1)  
---
TextBox.LayoutOrder = (1-#ScrollingFrame:GetChildren())
