**TL;DR: Please try to refer to this library as "Dear ImGui".** **TL;DR: Please refer to this library as "Dear ImGui".**
The library started its life as "ImGui" due to the fact that I didn't give it a proper name when when I released 1.0, and had no particular expectation that it would take off. However, the term IMGUI (immediate-mode graphical user interface) was coined before and is being used in variety of other situations (e.g. Unity uses it own implementation of the IMGUI paradigm). To reduce the ambiguity without affecting existing code bases, I have decided on an alternate, longer name "Dear ImGui" that people can use to refer to this specific library.

### Q: How can I use this without a mouse, without a keyboard or without a screen? (gamepad, input share, remote display) ### Q: How can I enable keyboard or gamepad controls?
- You can control Dear ImGui with a gamepad. Read about navigation in "Using gamepad/keyboard navigation controls". - The gamepad/keyboard navigation is fairly functional and keeps being improved. The initial focus was to support game controllers, but keyboard is becoming increasingly and decently usable. Gamepad support is particularly useful to use Dear ImGui on a game console (e.g. PS4, Switch, XB1) without a mouse connected!
(short version: map gamepad inputs into the io.NavInputs[] array + set `io.ConfigFlags |= ImGuiConfigFlags_NavEnableGamepad`). - Keyboard: set `io.ConfigFlags |= ImGuiConfigFlags_NavEnableKeyboard` to enable.
- See navigation [control sheets for gamepads](http://www.dearimgui.org/controls_sheets) (for PS4, XB1, Switch gamepads). - Gamepad: set `io.ConfigFlags |= ImGuiConfigFlags_NavEnableGamepad` to enable (with a supporting back-end).
- You can share your computer mouse seamlessly with your console/tablet/phone using [Synergy](https://symless.com/synergy) - See [Control Sheets for Gamepads](http://www.dearimgui.org/controls_sheets) (reference PNG/PSD for for PS4, XB1, Switch gamepads).
