UISizeConstraint

Show deprecated

The UISizeConstraint ensures a GuiObject does not become larger or smaller than the UISizeConstraint/MaxSize and UISizeConstraint/MinSize.

For example, if the MaxSize is set to {200, 200} and the MinSize is set to {100, 100}, then the constrained GuiObject cannot scale to be larger than 200 pixels wide and 200 pixels tall or smaller than 100 pixels wide and 100 pixels tall.

If the object with this constraint is also under the control of a UILayout such as UIGridLayout, then the constraint determines the objects size and overwrites any size the layout would apply.

A UISizeConstraint can be applied to a GuiObject by parenting it to that object.

Properties

Vector2

MaxSize

The largest size in pixels the object is allowed to be.
Vector2

MinSize

The smallest size in pixels the object is allowed to be.

Code Samples

Creating a GUI With a UISizeConstraint

This example creates a new anchored ScreenGui. It then creates a Frame and sets its parent to the created ScreenGui.

Then, it creates a new UISizeConstraint with a MaxSize of {250, 250} and MinSize of {50, 50}. To display the functionality of this constraint, we then set the size of the Frame we created to {(0, 400), (0, 400)}. Due to the constraint, the Frame will only scale to {(0, 250), (0, 250)} instead of the set size.

Please note that you can easily change the constraints in the example below to adjust the MaxSize and MinSize constraints on Frame set by the code.

-- Create a ScreenGui container for the Frame
local ScreenGui = Instance.new("ScreenGui")
ScreenGui.Parent = game.StarterGui

-- Create the frame
local frame = Instance.new("Frame")
frame.Parent = ScreenGui
frame.Size = UDim2.new(0, 400, 0, 400)

-- Create the UISizeConstraint
local constraint = Instance.new("UISizeConstraint")
constraint.Parent = frame
constraint.MaxSize = Vector2.new(250, 250)
constraint.MinSize = Vector2.new(50, 50)
