This addresses the issue I had with the old Toolbox and adds more in the process. Thank you! :smiley:

Ahah. Finally.

Search by Creator in Marketplace

  1. Been needing a update like this for a long time. Ive been wanting to search models by someone they put on sale but would first have to find the name of any model they created then click on there little name which seemed to be disabled this year.

Splitting Inventory and Marketplace

  1. I didnā€™t mind having to do the little drop down menu but this change will better suit others needs, and also make my enjoyment of the tool box ever so easier.

  1. The new 3D interactive preview thank you so much for this.
    Finally now I donā€™t have to insert models into my game to see what they look like in full.

I appreciate the new UI changes it got to
Good job :+1:

This will be great for private developers. I can make assets and send it to the group owner, and vice versa. Never having to add it in-game

Is there an ETA for the release? Maybe itā€™s just me, but my Studio doesnā€™t have the update yet.

So Marketplace is the same as the Library? Is there a particular reason for deviating from the established term there? I canā€™t make up the reasoning for it from this post.

Iā€™m also confused why the term ā€œmarketplaceā€ was used especially since ā€œlibraryā€ is shorter and would look better when the toolbox is scaled down.

In my studio itā€™s there, so I think you should just reopen studio

@Place_Rebootā€™s reply actually made a bit of sense. Going to be cool to see what will actually come in the future though.

Thatā€™s a fair point. Unfortunately didnā€™t catch that post on my first take because it was buried under ā€œthanks, this is greatā€ posts.

What did we do to deserve these great updates!? How could we EVER thank you!?!

No, but seriously though. Great update, guys. Roblox is becoming better and better with each update you roll out. Thanks!

This is something that I believe should have been a part of the toolbox from the start, however itā€™s here so I wonā€™t complain. These features will be quite helpful in developing, specifically the search for users feature, though cleaned up UI is nice as well! My one piece of feedback is moving the tabs to
Recent | Inventory | Marketplace
Although newer developers may use the ā€œMarketplaceā€ or library often, generally it would help experienced developers who almost always/always use their own or teamā€™s assets.

1. Splitting Inventory and Marketplace
I love that I can see recently used assets! I try to come back to assets I use later on to vote on them, and this will help me to do that.

I canā€™t take advantage of the Inventory tab unfortunately due to a bug that causes my recent assets to never show up in the toolbox, but once that is fixed, Iā€™ll be sure to check it out.

2. Detailed Asset Preview
And along with 1, this will help me to vote on them, much appreciated!
I especially like being able to look into models, it will certainly help to determine quality. I do hope in the future, we will be able to look into scripts as well.

Does clicking on the author name in the pop-up card thing (on hover) use this filter now?

This (author name):

Edit: Tested, nope.

It used to be a link you could click.

Real shame.

This is a great update that I wanted for a long time! :grinning:

What about the ability to search for group created assets by looking up the name of a group? I canā€™t do that and there are some public group assets I want to find.

Note when I say public, I donā€™t mean group assets for groups you have appropriate permissions in to find private assets via the toolbox in the ā€˜Inventoryā€™ tab

great addition to give models more relevance and to give users the ability to like these models to give them more traction!

Yes! It was about time Toolbox got updated. Glad to see this update.

This was an issue/change I was already experiencing before this update.

If there isnā€™t yet a bug report, you can make one to ensure the engineering team is aware.

What do you mean? Is it an issue that I donā€™t have it for some reason (like if itā€™s already a feature), or is it an issue that it isnā€™t a feature yet?

Itā€™s an issue-I donā€™t have that feature working anymore, but it used to. Sorry for confusion.
