Studio: Quality of Life Improvements

Oh that search feature is so good! I have like 200 place files and one of my game is from 2009, so I had to click through so many “load more” pages to get to it. No more!

Wahoo, you can search through your games. That would be useful for when you have soo many places in the same universe. Keep up the good work Roblox! :roblox: :roblox_light:

@posatta I think this happened with the last Roblox Studio update on Wednesday, which is when this update came out I think. I remember it as “As”, not “To”, so it probably was.

Tried using this, nothing appeared unless I searched something up. Possibly a bug, or was this intentional?

I noticed these changes come up over the past few months and I was super happy to see. I really hope Studio continues to get the UX polish it needs.

Also regarding the success screen on publishing, there is still an issue that makes it extremely jarring to publish your games.

Will there ever be a new Studio? Like I would love to see studio get redone so it’s easier and less clunky and looking like 2012 ROBLOX Studio.

On the topic of QoL… Can we please make the FFlagDebugStartPageRefreshOnF5 fast flag on by default (and/or make it an official feature), I really like being able to refresh the start page instead of having to COMPLETELY restart studio.

Nice update! Is searching existing published models going to be next?

This really needs a searchbar.

Yea, I’m going to support this but I dont think I’ll use it but, theres a glitch with me tho.

My friend a couple months ago had a game and said to help out. I did for some time and when I go to the “Invited Games” or even the Page of the game it doesn’t have those 3 dots.

Please fix this! :sweat_smile:

@BoricuaPepe - can you please clarify what you mean by publish map for Studio?

Thanks @Hexcede. Following up on this to see why this is not enabled by default.

@Hexcede - can you let us know why you are using this flag? If you create or edit a place, it should show up on the Recent and My Games pages immediately.

I have a question, will you guys soon also update the toolbox for groups to add a search bar so we can find our own assets faster and better instead of long scrollings down.

More information here.

Hi @DevJanick, that is a good suggestion. I will log it under our Quality of Life bucket.

@Cubic_Ralsei - not sure why you are not able to log a bug. Did you try posting here: Studio Bugs - Developer Forum | Roblox? We’ll need your logs to be able to debug this.

yeah i did try, the new topic button is disabled. the bug only happens when you open a game directly from studio though, not from the site

This is a great step. Even if it sheds a few minutes out of our daily workflow, if you’ve been working with Roblox Studio for many years, this change would shed off days of searching for publishing to already existing games.

I have always wanted to post a feature request to have a search bar in the plugins page, as some people (including me), use too many plugins to count.

Overall, this is an excellent path that Roblox is taking. I have been using studio since 2010 and the development workflow continues on expanding while being more productive and efficient.

One small QoL change that I’d really appreciate is being able to refresh the toolbox. Whenever I’m uploading decals I find myself constantly having to switch to “My Models” and back to “My Images” in order to force a refresh.
