Drawing ofFbo's texture as ImGui::Image(); about ofximgui HOT 3 CLOSED

Hi, on osx I'm having no issue using the "should be" code.

if(ImGui::Begin("ofFboTexture")){
	ImVec2 size = {fbo.getWidth(), fbo.getHeight()};
	ImGui::Image(GetImTextureID(fbo), size);
}
ImGui::End();

This said, I suspect your fbo being allocated before (edit: AFTER) gui.setup() : the texture ID of your FBO is probably conflicting with the ImGui font atlas texture (supposedly texture 1), overwriting the id of your fbo.

Hi Daandelange. I also asked this question in the openframeworks forum (under the "ofxImGui Docking feature implementation" topic answered by cmendoza). Inside the setup() function, first of all, Running the function ofDisableArbTex(); solved my problem. ofDisableArbTex(); Although I don't know exactly what it does, I am slowly learning.

Ok, great :)
Link to the topic for the reference.

To explain the ofxImGui part of this issue : there is an (unrelated) bug when the FBO/texture is allocated after gui.setup() is called in your ofApp::setup() code. Solve it by ensuring the FBO or texture is allocated before calling gui.setup(). To fix this permanently, oF and ImGui texture allocation behaviours should be reviewed, then define a way of handling such cases in ofxImGui.

As to the issue you were running into : when you used GetImTextureID, there should have been a console message warning you that the GetImTextureID was called with a wrong texture format ;) (and that is the primary reason for that function to be implemented)
Nb: ofxImGui has got quite a few runtime warnings that warn in case of wrong usage, I'd recommend to check them from time to time.

Lastly, ofDisableArbTex tells oF to use GL_TEXTURE_2D instead of the default GL_TEXTURE_RECTANGLE_ARB, which affects how textures are handled on the GPU. More info here. For basic usage you won't notice any differences, but if you manipulate them with fragment shaders, you'll have to take that change into account. Also, it can affect multi-platform compatibility, if running on gles-only GPUs (rpi/smartphones) for example.
