Text doesn't continue on mobile because of the size

[BasicRains]

I Have a problem with my npc dialogue text, I want this to be the same size for every device without having the text cut off, how do I fix that?

Mobile

PC

[axcorpio (axcorpioYT)]

Are you using scale or offset? Maybe the problem is because of offset

I am using scale and everything works:

Mobile:

PC:

[BasicRains]

I’m using scale, can u try making a longer sentence?

[axcorpio (axcorpioYT)]

Give me a moment (Character limit)

[axcorpio (axcorpioYT)]

Still working

Oh
Would you mind taking a look, maybe I did something wrong?

Everything looks good, maybe i can share you script i am using to type dialogue:

local dialogue = require(script.ModuleScript) -- dialogues here
local DummyPP = workspace.T.ProximityPrompt -- promt
local TalkLabel = script.Parent.Talk -- my label

local function TypeDialogue(dialogueText) -- func to type text
	local currentIndex = 0
	local function TypeNextCharacter()
		currentIndex = currentIndex + 1
		TalkLabel.Text = string.sub(dialogueText, 1, currentIndex)
		if currentIndex < #dialogueText then
			wait(0.05)
			TypeNextCharacter()
		end
	end
	TypeNextCharacter()
end

DummyPP.Triggered:Connect(function() -- promt func
	script.Parent.daName.Text = dialogue.DummyDia0.Name
	TypeDialogue(dialogue.DummyDia0.Dialogue.first)
end)

Maybe this would help more, Here’s the problem when you talk with the npc

Can you share your script when you are typing the dialogue (not all, just a func), maybe i will understand the problem

[axcorpio (axcorpioYT)]

Also are you using textSize or textScaled? Because if textScaled the are no problems

[BasicRains]

local DialogueGui = script.Parent
local DialogueSequence = DialogueGui:WaitForChild("DialogueSequence")
local Main = DialogueGui:WaitForChild("Main")

local CurrentDialogue = 1

local function typewriterEffect(targetText)
	Main.ContinueFrame.Visible = false  -- Hide the frame and button
	Main.ContinueButton.Visible = false
	Main.DialogueBox.Text = ""
	for i = 1, #targetText do
		Main.DialogueBox.Text = Main.DialogueBox.Text .. string.sub(targetText, i, i)
		wait(0.05)  -- Adjust the speed of the typewriter effect here
	end
	Main.ContinueFrame.Visible = true  -- Show the frame and button after typing
	Main.ContinueButton.Visible = true
end

local function showNextDialogue()
	local TargetDialogue = DialogueSequence:FindFirstChild(CurrentDialogue)

	if TargetDialogue then
		typewriterEffect(TargetDialogue.Value)
		CurrentDialogue = CurrentDialogue + 1

		-- Check if this is the last dialogue
		if CurrentDialogue > #DialogueSequence:GetChildren() then
			Main.ContinueButton.Text = "End"
			-- Change ContinueFrame's UIGradient to switch the colors
			Main.ContinueFrame.UIGradient.Color = ColorSequence.new{
				ColorSequenceKeypoint.new(0, Color3.fromRGB(100, 29, 36)),  -- Top color: 641d24
				ColorSequenceKeypoint.new(1, Color3.fromRGB(232, 65, 95))   -- Bottom color: e8415f
			}
		end
	else
		Main.ContinueButton.Text = "End"
		-- Change ContinueFrame's UIGradient to switch the colors
		Main.ContinueFrame.UIGradient.Color = ColorSequence.new{
			ColorSequenceKeypoint.new(0, Color3.fromRGB(100, 29, 36)),  -- Top color: 641d24
			ColorSequenceKeypoint.new(1, Color3.fromRGB(232, 65, 95))   -- Bottom color: e8415f
		}
	end
end

if DialogueSequence:FindFirstChild(CurrentDialogue) then
	showNextDialogue()
end

local clickedend = false

Main.ContinueButton.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
	if Main.ContinueButton.Text == "End" then
		if not clickedend then
			clickedend = true

			game:GetService("TweenService"):Create(Main, TweenInfo.new(1, Enum.EasingStyle.Quint, Enum.EasingDirection.InOut), {Position = UDim2.new(0.302, 0, 2, 0)}):Play()

			wait(1)
			DialogueGui.TargetEvent.Value:FireServer()
		end
	else
		showNextDialogue()
	end
end)

I got your error:

[BasicRains]

yeah I know but when I use it, it changes the size of the text when it types and I’d rather make it the same size

You can try selecting RichText but…

That’s not what you need

[axcorpio (axcorpioYT)]

You can try scaling the frame more on mobile devices

[Dankattsu (Dank)]

By using Scale instead of Offset Udim2.new(0.395, 0, 0.227, 0) at that case, you have adjusted the text to fit your screen only.

It also cuts on my screen because it is probably smaller than yours.

What I’ve done was change the size to use Offset; Deleted the UIAspectRatioConstraint since I believe, with a grain of salt, that if you correctly size the UI you shouldn’t need to use it; Enabled the AutomaticSize of the Main frame and the DialogueBox, and did a few minor tweaks.

Hope that helps.

Thank you so much! I appreciate this
