Tips Since This Is Your First Topic:

This may be a bit difficult to read for many people as the formatting is a bit off.

Make the 5., 6., 7., and 8. bullet points so it isn’t continuing the original list.


You could do this instead:

F3X

Then click image and link ‘F3X’ to the plugin link.


Besides these minor issues, these are good tips for beginning game developers looking to make a game!

I never really liked it in the first place because instead of making use of 9-slicing and sprite sheets, it would split up a frame into a bunch of different image labels. It seemed like it would negatively impact the performance of UI in games

(I don’t know if that has since changed)

True, but at the time when I used it, I was a pretty novice developer so I went with the easy tools.

Im sorry to say this but cant they use UiCorner but
overall this is a great tip for devs :slight_smile:

Yeah sure they can use it I can just put that their instead Roundify I heard its been acting weird for some people but for me I have no problem using it.

Mind sending me a Link the UICorner the official one because i sent a link on the topic I just made and It was a scamming Plugin i used by accident or if that is a actual Plugin to use.

no i mean this this is what i mean’t

UICorner isn’t a Plugin, its an official Roblox UI element
