On November 14th, I started seeing a brand new “People” list in the Roblox CoreGUI Menu.
With this new UI, the Display Names and / or Usernames of some players are not fully displayed, when the previous playerlist always showed the full Display Name and Username of each player currently in the server.
There is somewhat inconsistent behavior with how this works / why this happens:
-
Sometimes, only the player’s DisplayName is cut off / not completely shown, even if their Display Name is shorter than their username. When this happens, it usually hides the last 2 characters of the Display Name, regardless of Display Name length.
-
MOST Display Names that are 5 characters in length or shorter do not seem to be cut off.
-
SOME Display Names that are 6 characters in length or longer are cut off, but not every time.
-
Player Usernames are sometimes cut off, but I do not know what the threshold is or why it does not fully display the username.
Example
This screenshot shows a few examples of Display Names being cut off, and one example of a Username not being completely shown.
Here is a summary of what the screenshot shows, from the top of the list to the bottom:
(Bolded characters are the ones that were not correctly displayed in the list)
-
Player #1
- DisplayName: StrongBigeMan9 (did not show “n9”, the last 2 out of 14 characters)

Reproduction Steps:
- Join any game and open the Roblox CoreGUI Menu, selecting the “People” list.
- Make sure you have the new version of the UI (it will show avatar profile pictures by default instead of the full character model).
- Observe that some player Display Names / Usernames will not be fully shown.
