Notification System Tweaking

[sterile bobcat]

Im trying to make a simple notification system. Idk how its THIS hard but its the maths thats killing me.

Up there is the normal broken variant^^^

Down here is the other variant when you switch tabs (has something to do with deltaTime)

If this is meant to look like a list why not use UIListLayout

because it uses a runService connection to smoothly move down

And this is the script

well atleast the runService connection

My suggestion is to change the way you're handling this

Use the AbsoluteSize of each notification and, for each index, calculate what position they would be at if they were fully in position.

Separately, taking whatever position they should be at, lerp each notification item so it glides to that spot.

Generally, though, using AbsoluteSize and Offsets will make things easier

Scale for X position, but offset for Y

offset causes it to be messy on smaller screens

i tested it

hmmm

but wont lerp make it go to a set point

since it needs two values

the thing you are lerping and the % or whatever it is called

If you're using AbsoluteSize to calculate it for the Y, screen size shouldn't really be an issue

if you use Y scale for the size, AbsoluteSize will know what the true size of that is.

Well do whatever you want to do, lerping via a set T, or using some speed * DT

[sterile bobcat]

speed * dt sounds better

thanks for the help
