- If you have a same ID twice in the same location, you'll have a conflict:
```cpp
Begin("MyWindow");
Button("OK");
Button("OK"); // ID collision! Interacting with either button will trigger the first one.
Button("OK"); // ERROR: ID collision with the first button! Interacting with either button will trigger the first one.
Button(""); // ERROR: ID collision with Begin("MyWindow")!
End();
```
Fear not! this is easy to solve and there are many ways to solve it!

- Solving ID conflict in a more general manner:
Use PushID() / PopID() to create scopes and manipulate the ID stack, as to avoid ID conflicts
Use `PushID()` / `PopID()` to create scopes and manipulate the ID stack, as to avoid ID conflicts
within the same window. This is the most convenient way of distinguishing ID when iterating and
creating many UI elements programmatically.
You can push a pointer, a string or an integer value into the ID stack.
