1.91.4: keyboard/gamepad nav options, draw callback data & backend render state & more

❤️ Two months ago was the 10th anniversary of v1.00! Read: 10 years of Dear ImGui ! 🎉
Reading the changelog is a good way to keep up to date with the things Dear ImGui has to offer, and maybe will give you ideas of some features that you've been ignoring until now!

Dear ImGui is funded by your contributions and absolutely needs them to sustain and grow. We can invoice and accommodate to many situations. If your company uses Dear ImGui, please reach out. See Funding page. Did you know? If you need an excuse to pay, you may buy licenses for Test Engine and buy hours of support (and cough not use them all) and that will contribute to fund Dear ImGui.

Changes (since v1.91.3)

Breaking Changes:

  • Style: renamed ImGuiCol_NavHighlight to ImGuiCol_NavCursor, for consistency with newly exposed and reworked features. Kept inline redirection enum (will obsolete).
  • The typedef for ImTextureID now defaults to ImU64 instead of void*. (#1641)
    • This removes the requirement to redefine it for backends which are e.g. storing descriptor sets or other 64-bits structures when building on 32-bits archs (namely our DX12 and Vulkan backends). It therefore simplify various building scripts/helpers.
    • You may have compile-time warnings if you were casting to void* instead of ImTextureID when passing your types to functions taking ImTextureID values, e.g. ImGui::Image(). In doubt it is almost always better to do an intermediate intptr_t cast, since it allows casting any pointer/integer type without warning:
      • May warn: ImGui::Image((void*)MyTextureData, ...);
      • May warn: ImGui::Image((void*)(intptr_t)MyTextureData, ...);
      • Won't warn: ImGui::Image((ImTextureID)(intptr_t)MyTextureData), ...);
    • Note that you can always #define ImTextureID to be your own high-level structures (with dedicated constructors and extra render parameters) if you like.
  • IO: moved ImGuiConfigFlags_NavEnableSetMousePos to standalone io.ConfigNavMoveSetMousePos bool.
  • IO: moved ImGuiConfigFlags_NavNoCaptureKeyboard to standalone io.ConfigNavCaptureKeyboard bool (note the inverted value!). (#2517, #2009). Kept legacy names (will obsolete) + code that copies settings once the first time. Dynamically changing the old value won't work. Switch to using the new value!

Other changes:

  • IO: added void* platform_io.Renderer_RenderState which is set during the ImGui_ImplXXXX_RenderDrawData() of standard backends to expose selected render states to your draw callbacks. (#6969, #5834, #7468, #3590)
  • IO: io.WantCaptureKeyboard is never set when ImGuiConfigFlags_NoKeyboard is enabled. (#4921)
  • Error Handling: turned a few more functions into recoverable errors. (#1651)
  • Nav (Keyboard/Gamepad navigation):
    • Nav: added io.ConfigNavCursorVisibleAuto and io.ConfigNavCursorVisibleAlways to configure visibility of navigation cursor. (#1074, #2048, #7237, #8059, #3200, #787)
      • Set io.ConfigNavCursorVisibleAuto = true (default) to enable automatic toggling of cursor visibility (mouse click hide the cursor, arrow keys makes it visible).
      • Set io.ConfigNavCursorVisibleAlways to keep cursor always visible.
    • Nav: added NavSetCursorVisible(bool visible) function to manipulate visibility of navigation cursor (e.g. set default state, or after some actions). (#1074, #2048, #7237, #8059)
    • Nav: added io.ConfigNavEscapeClearFocusItem and io.ConfigNavEscapeClearFocusWindow to change how pressing Escape affects navigation. (#8059, #2048, #1074, #3200)
      • Set io.ConfigNavEscapeClearFocusItem = true (default) to clear focused item and highlight.
      • Set io.ConfigNavEscapeClearFocusItem = false for Escape to not have an effect.
      • Set io.ConfigNavEscapeClearFocusWindow = true to completely unfocus the Dear ImGui window, is for some reason your app relies on imgui focus to take other decisions.
    • Nav: pressing Escape to hide the navigation cursor doesn't clear current location, so it may be restored when Ctrl+Tabbing back into the same window later.
    • Nav: fixed Ctrl+Tab initiated with no focused window from skipping the top-most window. (#3200)
    • Nav: navigation cursor is not rendered for items with ImGuiItemFlags_NoNav. Can be relevant when e.g activating a _NoNav item with mouse, then Ctrl+Tabbing back and forth.
  • Disabled: clicking a disabled item focuses parent window. (#8064)
  • InvisibleButton, Nav: fixed an issue when InvisibleButton() would be navigable into but not display navigation highlight. Properly navigation on it by default. (#8057)
  • InvisibleButton: added ImGuiButtonFlags_EnableNav to enable navigation over the invisible button. (#8057)
  • Tooltips: fixed incorrect tooltip positioning when using keyboard/gamepad navigation (1.91.3 regression). (#8036)
  • DrawList: AddCallback() added an optional size parameter allowing to copy and store any amount of user data for usage by callbacks: (#6969, #4770, #7665)
    • If userdata_size == 0: we copy/store the userdata argument as-is (existing behavior). It will be available unmodified in ImDrawCmd::UserCallbackData during render.
    • If userdata_size > 0, we copy/store userdata_size bytes pointed to by userdata (new behavior). We store them in a buffer stored inside the drawlist. ImDrawCmd::UserCallbackData will point inside that buffer so you have to retrieve data from there. Your callback may need to use ImDrawCmd::UserCallbackDataSize if you expect dynamically-sized data.
    • Note that we use a raw type-less copy.
  • Tables: fixed initial auto-sizing issue with synced-instances. (#8045, #7218)
  • InputText: fixed an issue with not declaring ownership of Delete/Backspace/Arrow keys, preventing use of external shortcuts that are not guarded by an ActiveId check. (#8048) [@geertbleyen]
  • InputText: ensure mouse cursor shape is set regardless of whether keyboard mode is enabled or not. (#6417)
  • InputScalar: added an assert to clarify that ImGuiInputTextFlags_EnterReturnsTrue is not
    supported by InputFloat()/InputInt()/InputScalar() etc. widgets. It actually never was. (#8065, #3946)
  • imgui_freetype: Added support for plutosvg (as an alternative to lunasvg) to render OpenType SVG fonts. Requires defining IMGUI_ENABLE_FREETYPE_PLUTOSVG along with IMGUI_ENABLE_FREETYPE. Providing headers/librairies for plutosvg + plutovg is up to you (see #7927 for help). (#7927, #7187, #6591, #6607) [@pthom]
  • Backends: DX11, DX12, SDLRenderer2/3. Vulkan, WGPU: expose selected state in ImGui_ImplXXXX_RenderState structures during render loop, for user draw callbacks. (#6969, #5834, #7468, #3590)
  • Backends: DX9, DX10, DX11, DX12, OpenGL, Vulkan, WGPU: Changed default texture sampler to Clamp instead of Repeat/Wrap. (#7468, #7511, #5999, #5502, #7230)

Changes from 1.91.3 to 1.91.4 in the Docking branch:

  • Backends: changed all backends to allow enabling ImGuiConfigFlags_ViewportsEnable after initialization. (#5371)

@fchen99: "I'm working on this car audio flow editing and tuning tool recently. I've posted screen shot of its early version a couple of weeks ago, and now it's getting to its first release. Thanks @ocornut and all other contributors for your great work, imgui makes my work easier and more enjoyable."

@ypujante: _"I made an Emscripten port for ImGui. What this means is that you only need the port file to use ImGui and it has simple options to configure it (like which renderer to use and which backend and the branch). The port takes care of downloading the proper version and compiling it. Check out the port on pongasoft/emscripten-ports.
