ISSUES & TODO LIST
Issue numbers (#) refer to GitHub issues listed at https://github.com/ocornut/imgui/issues/XXXX
This list is not well maintained, most of the work happens on GitHub nowadays.
THIS LIST IS NOT WELL MAINTAINED. MOST OF THE WORK HAPPENS ON GITHUB NOWADAYS.
The list below consist mostly of ideas noted down before they are requested/discussed by users (at which point they usually exist on the github issue tracker).

- window: begin with *p_open == false could return false.
- window: get size/pos helpers given names (see discussion in #249)
- window: when window is very small, prioritize resize button over close button.
- window: double-clicking on title bar to minimize isn't consistent, perhaps move to single-click on left-most collapse icon?
- window: double-clicking on title bar to minimize isn't consistent interaction, perhaps move to single-click on left-most collapse icon?
- window: expose contents size. (#1045)
- window: using SetWindowPos() inside Begin() and moving the window with the mouse reacts a very ugly glitch. We should just defer the SetWindowPos() call.
- window: GetWindowSize() returns (0,0) when not calculated? (#1045)

- window/child: allow resizing of child windows (possibly given min/max for each axis?.)
- window/child: allow SetNextWindowContentSize() to work on child windows.
- window/clipping: some form of clipping when DisplaySize (or corresponding viewport) is zero.
- window/tabbing: add a way to signify that a window or docked window requires attention (e.g. blinking title bar).
- window/id_stack: add e.g. window->GetIDFromPath() with support for leading / and ../ (#1390, #331)
- window/tabbing: add a way to signify that a window or docked window requires attention (e.g. blinking title bar, trying to click behind a modal).
- window/id_stack: add e.g. window->GetIDFromPath() with support for leading / and ../ (#1390, #331) -> model from test engine.
! scrolling: exposing horizontal scrolling with Shift+Wheel even when scrollbar is disabled expose lots of issues (#2424, #1463)
- scrolling: while holding down a scrollbar, try to keep the same contents visible (at least while not moving mouse)
- scrolling: allow immediately effective change of scroll after Begin() if we haven't appended items yet.
- scrolling: forward mouse wheel scrolling to parent window when at the edge of scrolling limits? (useful for listbox,tables?)
- scrolling/clipping: separator on the initial position of a window is not visible (cursorpos.y <= clippos.y). (2017-08-20: can't repro)
- scrolling/style: shadows on scrollable areas to denote that there is more contents (see e.g. DaVinci Resolve ui)
- drawdata: make it easy to deep-copy (or swap?) a full ImDrawData so user can easily save that data if they use threaded rendering. (e.g. #2646)
! drawlist: add CalcTextSize() func to facilitate consistent code from user pov (currently need to use ImGui or ImFont alternatives!)
- drawlist: maintaining bounding box per command would allow to merge draw command when clipping isn't relied on (typical non-scrolling window or non-overflowing column would merge with previous command). (WIP branch)
- drawlist: primitives/helpers to manipulate vertices post submission, so e.g. a quad/rect can be resized to fit later submitted content, _without_ using the ChannelSplit api
- drawlist: make it easier to toggle AA per primitive, so we can use e.g. non-AA fill + AA borders more naturally
- drawlist: non-AA strokes have gaps between points (#593, #288), glitch especially on RenderCheckmark() and ColorPicker4().
- drawlist: rendering: provide a way for imgui to output to a single/global vertex buffer, re-order indices only at the end of the frame (ref: https://gist.github.com/floooh/10388a0afbe08fce9e617d8aefa7d302)
- drawlist: callback: add an extra void* in ImDrawCallback to allow passing render-local data to the callback (would break API).
- drawlist: AddRect vs AddLine position confusing (#2441)
- drawlist/opt: store rounded corners in texture to use 1 quad per corner (filled and wireframe) to lower the cost of rounding. (#1962)
- drawlist/opt: AddRect() axis aligned pixel aligned (no-aa) could use 8 triangles instead of 16 and no normal calculation.
- drawlist/opt: thick AA line could be doable in same number of triangles as 1.0 AA line by storing gradient+full color in atlas.
- main: IsItemHovered() info stored in a stack? so that 'if TreeNode() { Text; TreePop; } if IsHovered' return the hover state of the TreeNode?
- items: IsItemHovered() info stored in a stack? so that 'if TreeNode() { Text; TreePop; } if IsHovered' return the hover state of the TreeNode?
