Viewports #213

nocheacosador · 2022-06-15T22:45:54Z

Hi!
I've just implemented ImGui multi-viewport feature for SFML. I haven't tested it with multiple ImGui contexts but with one context it seems to work. I am planning on developing it further, especially if you would consider merging it with the master branch or creating a new viewports branch in your repository. Please, don't hesitate to give me any feedback, I'm eager to contribute and learn :)
Hope to hear from you soon.

nocheacosador · 2022-06-15T22:53:57Z

Ah. Also, My implementation will only work on Windows because ImGui requires monitor info and as far as I know SFML doesn't provide any API for that, so I used Windows API for that, in the future I would be able to implement it for Ubuntu. As for MacOS it would be difficult cause I don't have Mac machine accessible to me to test the implementation.

Thanks for your work on this! My project uses imgui-sfml and we've tried to use imgui's docking feature with no success. Will this PR allow us to use docking?

Well, as far as I know docking should work straight out of the box, even without this PR. You just need to use docking branch of ImGui and enable docking with setting ImGuiConfigFlags_EnableDocking flag in io.ConfigFlags.

…nch.

Hello.
Thanks for the PR. It's pretty complex and I can't promise that I'll be able to review it in depth soon (maybe in 2-3 weeks? Lots of stuff going on in real life, sorry...)

Is this one based on SDL backend implementation? I think that SFML and SDL implementations should be pretty close.

const bool should be just bool - more of a taste-thing, don't like "const" in this context.
Also the variable should be named isImContextOwner

I don't think that this #ifdef is needed. It's pretty confusing.
It's OK to have extra variables/constructors - this context struct is not public anyway. Usually there should be strong reason to exclude something from compilation (e.g. platform-specific things which would cause compilation to break)

Ah, I see, the WindowContext constructor might become ambiguous because of default arguments... You shouldn't make them default them to avoid ambiguity then, in my opinion.

+ SFML_UpdateMonitors();

+ WindowContext* wc = (WindowContext*)viewport->PlatformUserData;


I don't like this copy-paste at all...
Why is it needed? Won't all events be handled by ImGui::SFML::ProcessEvent anyway?
If you need it here because of SFML_UpdateMonitors(), then maybe we need to add something like ImGui::SFML::PreUpdate and require users to call it before all ProcessEvent calls if they want to use viewports.

ImGui::SFML::ProcessEvent handles only main window events. Events for viewports' windows are not handled by it. Maybe, to avoid copy-pasting, ImGui::SFML::ProcessEvent could call internal function, for example ProcessEvent(const Event&, WindowContext*), with s_currWindowCtx, and in this loop it would be called with corresponding viewport's window context?

Is wc ever nullptr here?

imgui-SFML.cpp

+ wc->window->setPosition(pos);
+}
+
+ImVec2 SFML_GetWindowPos(ImGuiViewport* viewport) {


Why doesn't sf::Window::getPosition not work here for all platforms?

On Windows SFML sf::Window::getPosition() returns top left corner position in screen coords including title bar. ImGui requires position of client area (area where stuff is drawn), therefore if value returned by sf::Window::getPosition() is used, main viewport becomes offsetted in reference to io.MousePos by title bar height.

imgui-SFML.cpp

+ MapWindowPoints(hwnd, NULL, (LPPOINT)&clientAreaRect, 2);
+ return { (float)clientAreaRect.left, (float)clientAreaRect.top };
+#else
+ if (wc->imContextOwner) return wc->window->getPosition() + sf::Vector2i(0, 24);


What is this (0, 24) offset?

This was an early attempt to cancel out that title bar offset in the main viewport. I will delete this.

imgui-SFML.cpp

+
+void SFML_RenderWindow(ImGuiViewport* viewport, void*) {

Easier to read:

if (wc->imContextOwner) { return; } ... // rest of the code

@oprypin, @vittorioromeo
Would appreciate if you take a look at this if viewports/docking are something you're interested in. :)

Also, it seems to me like it would be great to separate imgui-sfml into several files now. Any thoughts?
Looks like imgui-SFML.cpp is growing way too big to handle easily...

oprypin · 2022-06-17T15:02:42Z

My implementation will only work on Windows

That makes me instantly not interested in this 😕
So I'm out, sorry

MirrasHue · 2022-08-11T02:48:37Z

Amazing, man!

I was even wondering about using the official backend (GLFW probably) to have this feature, but I prefer this one much better, so that I can stick with SFML as well.

Vitorrio, please don’t add me to reviews anymore.

I haven’t used SFML for many years and don’t have capacity to maintain/review ImGui-SFML stuff anymore.
