the image i just posted is in brazilian portuguese
after testing i found out there is tabs profiles, however i have alot of plugins and i would much prefer for the plugins profiles to be a dropdown, for example make all the plugins a single tab, and make a dropdown called Profiles, when u click it shows your profiles and u can add plugins the same way u do right now, because rn it just takes up a ton of tabs and destroys the compact feeling u went for

words cannot express how much better this looks compared to the bloated mess that now resides in the top of studio
copy and pasting what i said on the older post because no attention was drawn to it
hi linux user here
i⠀ know roblox doesnt really focus too much on the linux community because god forbid they spend money and also the “hacking issues”, so ive been using vinegar, but what ive noticed with nextgen is that the tooltips are creating physical windows that dont behave well with my window manager
(or something like a tooltip behaviour option)
^ old version didnt do this, all extra tooltips were kept inside the main window, thats basically my only concern with actual functionality
i⠀ really dont wanna have this forced on me if it doesnt work with my machine, and for me this entire thing just seems like making things worse for the sake of it
(yes this is left-aligned)
for the little stuff at the top, there is a great distance between the computer icon and the left side of the home page, a lot of my muscle memory comes from the current version of studio, so the fact its a little bit off messes me up still sometimes
customization
i think its awesome that you guys are adding functionality to the studio which allows people to customize the topbar to their needs, but it sucks when its not in the areas which people are asking for
the best thing i can wish for is the ability to code your own ui, especially now that its using luau, but i also understand that takes time and effort
i just think some stylization from the user would definitely help the issue of others not liking the ui, because then theyre able to change it if they want to
to me it seems like imposing arbitrary ui tastes onto users, and thats disappointing to see when they liked the old one, obviously tools need to evolve but i dont understand why the frontend has to change along with it, but i prefer the old ui, design especially, so i am biased here

I counted the number of intractable things like textboxes and buttons in each UI
Old UI: ~41 intractable things
New UI: ~25 intractable things
Rip collision groups in new UI. Well maybe see it make a return later this month hopefully.

Look at how much wasted space there is… dear god…

Can the plugin tab please be fixed, a majority of my plugins are gone now
there is also so much wasted space between each plugin, bring back the groups : (
the new ui just has so much useless space aswell, the tabs had everything youd need for that task, but now so many things are under layers of submenus, making it way more tedious for no reason…

Yeah, the padding is WAYYY too big, in the old ui i could fit like 30 plugins but now i can only fit 12, how???
I can’t believe this sh** is releasing in a few months! It’s so underbaked! Roblox engineers blink twice if David Baszucki is forcing you to release this unfinished product

This probably won’t happen because it’s a strange workflow. Fullscreen on macOS is unequivocally bad, and you barely gain any screen real estate from hiding the menu bar.
Hey there, here’s my opinion for this, I don’t like It . Sure It’s convenient at times but what annoys me the most Is design wise as you have alot of empty spaces that aren’t necessary like the top bar, I actually tried remaking It on photoshop just to show you how much spaces can be saved easily. Another complaint I have Is that the layout should’ve been close as to like what It was before.
As you can see from the Image, alot of spaces could be easily saved and more compact too making It more comfortable and easier for me to look at. But that’s just my take on the design though.

Can this issue be looked into and resolved before it exits beta? It affects my everyday usage of Studio and is very annoying.

in the meantime i’ve found it to be faster to rearrange the entries in the ribbon json files
\AppData\Local\Roblox\1234567890\CustomRibbonTabs
also, for anyone looking for this:
paste this into the ‘Controls’ array in your ribbon json file:

I like the new ribbon, but the issue is where it is.
This new user interface feels like a web-based workflow. Roblox Studio, however, is desktop-based. Therefore, it looks inconsistent with the system.
While we plan to improve the space utilization very soon, today you can make the most of your UI space by hiding tool labels or even hiding the entire ribbon…
It’s good that you’re focusing on using the extra space in the ribbon.
Either way, this new interface is awesome with its customizability. It’s just about its inconsistency across the rest of the system.

I’d like to have the View and Test menus back. I know I can recreate them manually in the new layout, but if Roblox Studio gets bugged and resets my layout, I don’t want to keep rebuilding those menus every time. Also, can we have tabs or menus that stay hidden until needed—like automatically switching to the script layout when I open a script, just like before? The Test and View menus were especially useful to me, so I’d really appreciate having them restored.
[copied my comment to someones post over to here]
Was going to make a post about this but I wont now.
This UI change is … nah don’t like it, like mentioned its too big I feel like there is less (I prefer more buttons for faster access etc the current Ui is Perfect for me.
I was using Studio since 2013 I experienced the old studio image below not mine but for reference
When roblox updated it, It was a huge change that I liked it did take a while to get used to it as I was still relatively new to roblox. BUT… its been that way for a while now with some small changes here and there, and I really like it.
Now this new UI
look sure it looks nice but I’m seeing less and icons changed (icons I can get used to eventually), however like I mentioned I like more on my menu, for example all the smaller buttons like anchor, group, lock, or Script, local script, module script etc, You can’t do that with this new UI
The current UI to me is just a lot better, its just the way I like it.
Sure there is customization but still I was trying it, trying to recreate the old UI layout and it was getting annoying to use, certain tools not showing up in the list, or options. Also more then one option for a tool, for example color, one it changes the color when you select parts and click it other is a color drop down and only that.
also I can’t seem to get things to go into a drop down like adding blocks, wedges etc.
Another thing I don’t like is needing to long click to bring down a drop down and also to select form that drop down releasing the click. [After typing this sentence I realized there is a drop down arrow, however again not a fan as its in the corner of the button and seems like a smaller area and not its own button under.]
I like to have as big of a workspace as possible while also having the top menu open, and essentials like explorer and properties so this new ui being a bit bigger isn’t good, I would rather the tabs and the play button etc being up at the top like the current UI.
Personally this UI change isn’t needed, I don’t like it overall and would much rather not use it, there for I will be keeping it off in the beta features…
