dear imgui 1.93.0 released! (123rd release!) github.com/ocornut/imgu... - ImDrawList rework w/ many improvements and fixes (e.g. inward/outward stroke pos, better thick strokes, AA ends, baked rounded corners & more) - mixed values, and 50+ other fixes/features.

Since a few years it notifies you on screen when there’s a conflict. Deterministic and explicit paths have imho better properties since ID are stable, may be referred to externally (from other code locations).

But practically every year I’m thinking: it’s not progressing fast enough, I’m terrible, all sponsors are going to drop me, now AI is going to replace me, etc and somehow it stays afloat.

Omar @ocornut.bsky.social · 07/10/2026

I see it as a giant engineering puzzle “order of the sinking codebase” finding a path toward continued improvement without letting people down or causing them trouble. There’s also a matter of pride: I never feel it is good enough so I cannot leave it.

Omar @ocornut.bsky.social · 07/10/2026

it also sits in an odd spot: I suspect it is almost disappointingly unexciting for most users & might slightly get in the way to some, as it is mostly a refactor w/ subtle breakage and no shipped novel tip of the iceberg. But the compound benefits for future improvements will be worth it.

And it’s one of one thing that would have been 5x easier if perfs were not on the line, and 5x times easier if backward compatibility was not on the line‘

Omar @ocornut.bsky.social · 07/10/2026

It’s not even a full ImDrawList rewrite and it wasn’t in my immediate plans, but Mikko got himself into a “what is this 0.5 pixel offset?” honeypot and as he was well into that pit I thought i couldn’t let his work be unattended so I eventually fell into the pit myself.

Hopefully most won't immediately notice, but it's a rather big change! Got rid of many <1.50-era mistakes, closed 14 longstanding legit issues/PR. Took a while to come up with good design to move forward + minimize breakage, but there'll be some if you use custom rendering much.

Nothing rocket science, but I updated the 1.00-era ImGuiTextFilter: words separated by space use logical ~and (comma is ~or) which is standard, added support for double-quotes, fixes for "-excl" statement priority. Not meant to be a full-featured regexp match, but a decent convenience one.

Finished support for Mixed/Undeterminate Values display and moved to public API. (It's a generic ImGuiItemFlags_MixedValue flag, aimed to be manipulated by e.g. a generic data-driven property editor in the case of multi-selection).

Immediate mode GUI (I use @ocornut.bsky.social's Dear ImGui) and C++ hot-reload is an extremely powerful combination. Live-coding of UI is like building a Shadertoy - fast visual feedback gets you into a flow state. I've been using ImGui's "background draw list" functionality (which

Omar @ocornut.bsky.social · 01/09/2026

FYI if you want to try string view support, there's a 'features/string_view' branch that's up to date & been maintained for years. Feedback welcome 🙏 I sat on merging it to avoid adding debug-stepping overhead in common debuggers (but VS now support .natstepfilter in projects).

Have you tried the existing string_view branch? feedback would be great.

Omar @ocornut.bsky.social · 01/09/2026

Thinking about including an extra thing in dear imgui 1.93. - Perhaps I could finally merge support for string view in the API? - Design standard glue to manage idle mode + ship examples that do so (currently externally possible, but being not stock/standard it adds friction)? Opinion?

Omar @ocornut.bsky.social · 31/08/2026

Reminder: looking for feedback on ImDrawList improvements slated for 1.93, see post below. If you make extensive use of draw primitives and/or have dealt with careful positioning, pixel-perfect shapes, etc trying this in your project and reporting would be nice!

My primary obsession is to make this project last :) which means I can’t accelerate faster than what I deem is safe in the long run.

Omar @ocornut.bsky.social · 30/08/2026

There is a huge demand for a look that looks more aligned to standard, or at least better by default. i just worry it would accelerate adoption and there are many lower level things I want to fix/improve first. But It’s subtly coming distilled in hundreds of changes over time.

Omar @ocornut.bsky.social · 30/08/2026

I don’t mean necessarily all AI assisted PR/issues but it has a strong tendency to empower people to send wall of text that feels like finding signal in a noise stack + using polished form but still carrying occasionally gross mistakes means you need to go through all, which is tedious.
