The library started its life and is best known as "ImGui" only due to the fact that I didn't give it a proper name when I released it. However, the term IMGUI (immediate-mode graphical user interface) was coined before and is being used in variety of other situations. It seemed confusing and unfair to hog the name. To reduce the ambiguity without affecting existing codebases, I have decided on an alternate, longer name "dear imgui" that people can use to refer to this specific library in ambiguous situations.

You can control Dear ImGui with a gamepad, see the explanation in imgui.cpp about how to use the navigation feature (short version: map your gamepad inputs into the `io.NavInputs[]` array and set `io.ConfigFlags |= ImGuiConfigFlags_NavEnableGamepad`).
You can share your computer mouse seamlessy with your console/tablet/phone using [Synergy](http://synergy-project.org). This is the prefered solution for developer productivity. In particular, their [micro-synergy-client](https://github.com/symless/micro-synergy-client) repo there is _uSynergy.c_ sources for a small embeddable that you can use on any platform to connect to your host PC. You may also use a third party solution such as [Remote ImGui](https://github.com/JordiRos/remoteimgui).

For touch inputs, you can increase the hit box of widgets (via the _style.TouchPadding_ setting) to accommodate a little for the lack of precision of touch inputs, but it is recommended you use a mouse or gamepad to allow optimising for screen real-estate and precision.

Please reach out if you think the game vs navigation input sharing could be improved.
- Mouse:
- PS4 users: Consider emulating a mouse cursor with DualShock4 touch pad or a spare analog stick as a mouse-emulation fallback.
- Consoles/Tablet/Phone users: Consider using Synergy host (on your computer) + uSynergy.c (in your console/tablet/phone app) to use your PC mouse/keyboard.
- Consoles/Tablet/Phone users: Consider using a Synergy 1.x server (on your PC) + uSynergy.c (in your console/tablet/phone app) to share your PC mouse/keyboard.
- On a TV/console system where readability may be lower or mouse inputs may be awkward, you may want to set the ImGuiConfigFlags_NavMoveMouse flag.
Enabling ImGuiConfigFlags_NavMoveMouse instructs dear imgui to move your mouse cursor along with navigation movements.
When enabled, the NewFrame() function may alter 'io.MousePos' and set 'io.WantMoveMouse' to notify you that it wants the mouse cursor to be moved.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS (FAQ), TIPS
======================================
Q: How can I help?
A: - If you are experienced with Dear ImGui and C++, look at the github issues, or TODO.txt and see how you want/can help!
- Convince your company to fund development time! Individual users: you can also become a Patron (patreon.com/imgui) or donate on PayPal! See README.
- Disclose your usage of dear imgui via a dev blog post, a tweet, a screenshot, a mention somewhere etc.
You may post screenshot or links in the gallery threads (github.com/ocornut/imgui/issues/1269). Visuals are ideal as they inspire other programmers.
But even without visuals, disclosing your use of dear imgui help the library grow credibility, and help other teams and programmers with taking decisions.
- If you have issues or if you need to hack into the library, even if you don't expect any support it is useful that you share your issues (on github or privately).
Q: How can I tell whether to dispatch mouse/keyboard to imgui or to my application?
A: You can read the 'io.WantCaptureMouse'/'io.WantCaptureKeyboard'/'io.WantTextInput' flags from the ImGuiIO structure.
- When 'io.WantCaptureMouse' is set, imgui wants to use your mouse state, and you may want to discard/hide the inputs from the rest of your application.
- When 'io.WantCaptureKeyboard' is set, imgui wants to use your keyboard state, and you may want to discard/hide the inputs from the rest of your application.
- When 'io.WantTextInput' is set to may want to notify your OS to popup an on-screen keyboard, if available (e.g. on a mobile phone, or console OS).
The 'io.WantCaptureMouse' is more accurate that any attempt to "check if the mouse is hovering a window" (don't do that!).
It handle mouse dragging correctly (both dragging that started over your application or over an imgui window) and handle e.g. modal windows blocking inputs.
Those flags are updated by ImGui::NewFrame(). Preferably read the flags after calling NewFrame() if you can afford it, but reading them before is also
perfectly fine, as the bool toggle fairly rarely.
(Advanced note: text input releases focus on Return 'KeyDown', so the following Return 'KeyUp' event that your application receive will typically
have 'io.WantCaptureKeyboard=false'. Depending on your application logic it may or not be inconvenient. You might want to track which key-downs
were for Dear ImGui, e.g. with an array of bool, and filter out the corresponding key-ups.)
Q: How can I display an image? What is ImTextureID, how does it works?
A: ImTextureID is a void* used to pass renderer-agnostic texture references around until it hits your render function.

e.g. when displaying a list of objects, using indices or pointers as ID will preserve the node open/closed state differently.

Q: How can I tell when Dear ImGui wants my mouse/keyboard inputs VS when I can pass them to my application?
A: You can read the 'io.WantCaptureMouse'/'io.WantCaptureKeyboard'/'ioWantTextInput' flags from the ImGuiIO structure.
- When 'io.WantCaptureMouse' or 'io.WantCaptureKeyboard' flags are set you may want to discard/hide the inputs from the rest of your application.
- When 'io.WantTextInput' is set to may want to notify your OS to popup an on-screen keyboard, if available (e.g. on a mobile phone, or console OS).
Preferably read the flags after calling ImGui::NewFrame() to avoid them lagging by one frame. But reading those flags before calling NewFrame() is
also generally ok, as the bool toggles fairly rarely and you don't generally expect to interact with either Dear ImGui or your application during
the same frame when that transition occurs. Dear ImGui is tracking dragging and widget activity that may occur outside the boundary of a window,
so 'io.WantCaptureMouse' is more accurate and correct than checking if a window is hovered.
(Advanced note: text input releases focus on Return 'KeyDown', so the following Return 'KeyUp' event that your application receive will typically
have 'io.WantCaptureKeyboard=false'. Depending on your application logic it may or not be inconvenient. You might want to track which key-downs
were for Dear ImGui, e.g. with an array of bool, and filter out the corresponding key-ups.)
Q: How can I load a different font than the default? (default is an embedded version of ProggyClean.ttf, rendered at size 13)
A: Use the font atlas to load the TTF/OTF file you want:
ImGuiIO& io = ImGui::GetIO();

For languages using IME, on Windows you can copy the Hwnd of your application to io.ImeWindowHandle.
The default implementation of io.ImeSetInputScreenPosFn() on Windows will set your IME position correctly.
Q: How can I preserve my Dear ImGui context across reloading a DLL? (loss of the global/static variables)
A: Create your own context 'ctx = CreateContext()' + 'SetCurrentContext(ctx)' and your own font atlas 'ctx->GetIO().Fonts = new ImFontAtlas()'
so you don't rely on the default globals.
Q: How can I use the drawing facilities without an ImGui window? (using ImDrawList API)
A: - You can create a dummy window. Call Begin() with NoTitleBar|NoResize|NoMove|NoScrollbar|NoSavedSettings|NoInputs flag,
push a ImGuiCol_WindowBg with zero alpha, then retrieve the ImDrawList* via GetWindowDrawList() and draw to it in any way you like.
A: - You can create a dummy window. Call SetNextWindowBgAlpha(0.0f), call Begin() with NoTitleBar|NoResize|NoMove|NoScrollbar|NoSavedSettings|NoInputs flags.
Then you can retrieve the ImDrawList* via GetWindowDrawList() and draw to it in any way you like.
- You can call ImGui::GetOverlayDrawList() and use this draw list to display contents over every other imgui windows.
- You can create your own ImDrawList instance. You'll need to initialize them ImGui::GetDrawListSharedData(), or create your own ImDrawListSharedData.

A: You are probably mishandling the clipping rectangles in your render function.
Rectangles provided by ImGui are defined as (x1=left,y1=top,x2=right,y2=bottom) and NOT as (x1,y1,width,height).

- If you have issues or if you need to hack into the library, even if you don't expect any support it is useful that you share your issues (on github or privately).
- tip: you can call Begin() multiple times with the same name during the same frame, it will keep appending to the same window.
this is also useful to set yourself in the context of another window (to get/set other settings)
