ofxImGui upgrade about ofximgui HOT 8 OPEN

A new update to this :)
Ping: @jvcleave , @prisonerjohn .

New Native OpenFrameworks Backend

I found a way to propose the legacy (jvcleave) implementation as an alternative. The main difference is that it uses imgui_impl_opengl2+3 instead of a custom renderer backend. This way, half the backend becomes indirectly maintained by ImGui, needing only to keep the platform backend up to date.

• This brings back support for ofApps running on any platform (Tested: Mac, Windows, Linux, rpi, iOS simulator)

Native ImGui Backend Hacks

• imgui_impl_opengl2 has been hacked to support GLES1, which OpenFrameworks still supports but not ImGui.
• imgui_impl_glfw is hacked to support multiple imgui contexts (needed to support multi-window ofApps) (can be disabled).
• Both hacks have an automatic update script (patch) and are documented for manually applying them.

Debug window

I'm working on a nice little debug window to help transition to the new ofxImGui

I hope to merge develop into master soon, what do you think ?
I have also added a note in master about develop. (a002b3a)

from ofximgui.

I just updated ImGui to 1.87 in develop, and there's some sweet news.
There were lots of changes on the official GLFW backend, notably io.BackendRendererUserData : maybe multi-ofAppWindows (example-multiwindows) will make it ! :D (this remains to be fixed for it and here)

Meanwhile, any feedback is still welcome.

Note: oF is getting updated to GLFW 3.3.7, which is gonna improve the GUI & simplify the setup. :)

cool! demo example compiled fine here using oF patch-release branch under Windows 10 / VS 2022. thanks for the update!

I don't think OF-VK is being developed any further. I would say remove it (at least for know) if it doesn't cause any issues

from ofximgui.

Nice! sounds good to me!

Ok, awesome :)
@prisonerjohn I saw your contributions to OF-VK/ofxImGui. Vulkan should not be hard to get running while it won't compile out of the box. What's the current OF-Vulkan state ? It seems to never have been merged into OF; is it still worth looking at of-vk + ofxImGui ?
