Views

Views are essentially ScreenGuis but they are automatically named and parented for you. It is a much more preffered way of creating them, as it makes your code cleaner and more readable.

Usage

In this usage example, we create a simple and default view with a TextButton.

local UI = require(path.to.UI)
local New = UI.New
local View = UI.View

local MyView = View { -- ScreenGui
    Type = "Screen",
    New "TextButton" {
        Text = "Click me!",
    }
}

Note that if you do not provide a type property, the default type is a ScreenGui. If the type is a ScreenGui and no parent is provided, the default is the PlayerGui.

View Types

There are three different view types:

• Screen
• Billboard
• Surface
