Next Gen Studio UI Preview is here! [Beta]

We are actively discussing this. You can already reset your layout with Reset View and we don’t yet have the UI for the custom tabs (one of our highest priorities, currently).

We are thinking that instead of allowing editing of system tabs, you can duplicate them, hide the original, and customize your copy. That way you can’t really mess up the default tabs and it gives us the ability to change those without a lot of trouble.

I think this should also be done in a way that allows you to duplicate all tabs. Also, system tabs should not be removable, instead, they can only be hidden whereas custom tabs can be removed.

Yep! You should be able to duplicate or hide any tab. Deleting a tab will just be for any custom ones added.

On MacOs 15.2:

Tooltips and other windows (see examples) go off screen in both windowed and fullscreen mode.
Somewhat related: The tooltip styling doesnt match the rest of the new ui’s style. A rounded background, and different colors would help.

My current screen resolution is 1366x768 - sadly. Won’t let me go higher.
That might be why I don’t see that bottom horizontal scroll bar :frowning: not sure though.

If I expand (say in middle of Explorer) … then I see about half of the menu options.
I really have to expand (“+” sign) very high up Explorer - then I might see most of it.

Guess it’s a me problem (resolution?) - which I will have to work around.
Just thought there might be another way around it - no fuss - THANKS.

every now and then i switch to get used to it as i imagine its getting rolled out


however the lock parts functionality still doesnt work fully owing i had to search for the depot in explorer rather than unlocking then moving it.

Once a few missing items are enabled then i will probably switch to the new UI full time as it looks really good

Can you please DM your logs to me when this happens again?

Thanks! Yes we are tracking a couple issues with the lock tool. The next big release we are working towards is offering the UI to allow for creating your own tabs. Anything missing from the default UI should be available to add to your custom toolbars.

What are you migrating to? What GUI libraries use Luau?

I wouldn’t mind C++/C# in Roblox Studio, honestly, that would make me more prone to use it.

The “universal” Roblox app, as well as many of Roblox’s Studio tools and default plugins, now use a Luau backend and standard Roblox GUI elements. Many, if not all, are built on top of react-lua (née Roact,) a port of the original React (which is written in Javascript) to Luau.

I wouldn’t mind C++/C# in Roblox Studio

If you’re looking for type-checking, Luau supports that. You can still program in an object-oriented manner. There is also native Luau that can be compiled directly to machine code instead of running in Luau’s VM if you truly need the speed.

This looks ugly why does it need to be changed
Just mondernize the current ribbon ui
Atleast give the view menu back

Why does it look “ugly” to you? What makes it “ugly”?

My main problem with it is the way it is layed out.

Hi Paul! Today I was working on my module and had to change some studio settings (frequently due to how often the new type solver crashes), and sometimes when Studio restarts due to me changing them, the Ribbon does not appear.

(Sometimes this also occurs when I just boot the Studio up normally.)
