New In-Game Topbar

Even better: You can have a game developer to even customise the buttons to fit into their games.
For example: if a developer is building a game that has a 2012 Roblox theme, the topbar and its buttons can be made to 2012.
If a developer is building a game, dedicated for recording, the topbar and its buttons can be invisible

Roblox did not have a topbar in 2012, though. All CoreGUI was separate.

I Prefer The 2020 Redesign Over This. Most Games Are Going to have to Redesign The Topbar once again if this does go public. the ROBLOX icon looks to big over the other icons

They could separate the topbar into CoreGUI

Is there any way to revert the new top bar? I have hated it since it went live in 2020.

It’s impossible to revert the topbar back because topbar are belong to coregui

I might as prefer the old top bar, but the problem was, you could place GUI elements on top of it.
With the new toolbar, you can put GUI elements over the top bar (although the top bar will bump in front)

@TheGamer101 So we’re gonna pretend this doesn’t exist?

This looks amazing, and I’d definitely prefer this rather than the one we have currently. It’s chunky and not too friendly.

The menu icon has a gradient that no other image has, the transparency of the rounded background doesn’t even match the leaderboard, and it doesn’t really look like anything they were going to start with.

What happened to something like this? It looks professional, clean and friendly to users. Plus it can fit with any game.

I would most certainly prefer @Elttob’s design though, as it’s scaled correctly.

So my question to the community is, which one is more preferred and why?

Remember how you could set the topbar transparency in games? Do you think roblox should bring it back but with a different approach?

The new way of it working would be instead of changing the transparency of the topbar’s background, you’d be able to change the transparency of the iconBase.

(Background of the any Topbar Button)

So instead of this:

You could achieve an effect like this:

I feel like this update would enhance the experience and gameplay of a variety of games. It’d be also visually appealing especially to games that focus on realism.

Examples

Here’s some more examples of what good this update would make:



Should this be a feature?

  • Yes
  • No (Explain why)
  • Maybe (With more customization)

No, it shouldn’t be it, just the new studio topbar actually is half good.

This is the update I ACTUALLY enjoy, because we have the top bar we know now, I actually liked it, but this is even better.

An update to allow theming of the topbar would be great. Like if we were allowed to choose what our menu and chat button looked like for our games. Or choose what we’d like our menu to look like.

Replied to you because I do not want this post to close either, but PLEASE I AM BEGGING make the top bar y axis smaller, it is covering way too much of the screen

Just for reference new top bar size, compared to the old one

The icon on the far right was the size of the old top bar, please scale it down a little bit or give developers the ability to set the size of the top bar

I like the old size better.
The new UI is way too big.

Yep I 100% agree im hoping they make the current topbar smaller

this new topbar would be fine if they both let us hide the dropdown menu and they made it conform to the old size

im telling you roblox staff this is 100x worse on mobile than it is on desktop
