3. Set `io.Fonts.TexDesiredWidth` to specify a texture width to minimize texture height (see comment in `ImFontAtlas::Build()` function).
4. Set `io.Fonts.Flags |= ImFontAtlasFlags_NoPowerOfTwoHeight;` to disable rounding the texture height to the next power of two.
5. Read about oversampling [here](https://github.com/nothings/stb/blob/master/tests/oversample).
6. To support the extended range of unicode beyond 0xFFFF (e.g. emoticons, dingbats, symbols, shapes, ancient languages, etc...) add `#define IMGUI_USE_WCHAR32`in your `imconfig.h`

### Integration
On most platforms and when using C++, **you should be able to use a combination of the [imgui_impl_xxxx](https://github.com/ocornut/imgui/tree/master/examples) files without modification** (e.g. `imgui_impl_win32.cpp` + `imgui_impl_dx11.cpp`). If your engine supports multiple platforms, consider using more of the imgui_impl_xxxx files instead of rewriting them: this will be less work for you and you can get Dear ImGui running immediately. You can _later_ decide to rewrite a custom backend using your custom engine functions if you wish so.

You can _later_ decide to rewrite a custom backend using your custom engine functions if you wish so.
Integrating Dear ImGui within your custom engine is a matter of 1) wiring mouse/keyboard/gamepad inputs 2) uploading one texture to your GPU/render engine 3) providing a render function that can bind textures and render textured triangles. The [examples/](https://github.com/ocornut/imgui/tree/master/examples) folder is populated with applications doing just that. If you are an experienced programmer at ease with those concepts, it should take you less than two hours to integrate Dear ImGui in your custom engine. **Make sure to spend time reading the [FAQ](https://www.dearimgui.org/faq), comments, and some of the examples/ application!**

### Upcoming Changes
Some of the goals for 2020 are:
- Work on docking. (see [#2109](https://github.com/ocornut/imgui/issues/2109), in public [docking](https://github.com/ocornut/imgui/tree/docking) branch)
- Work on multiple viewports / multiple OS windows. (see [#1542](https://github.com/ocornut/imgui/issues/1542), in public [docking](https://github.com/ocornut/imgui/tree/docking) branch looking for feedback)
- Work on gamepad/keyboard controls. (see [#787](https://github.com/ocornut/imgui/issues/787))
- Work on new Tables API (to replace Columns). (see [#2957](https://github.com/ocornut/imgui/issues/2957), in public [tables](https://github.com/ocornut/imgui/tree/tables) branch looking for feedback)
- Work on Docking (see [#2109](https://github.com/ocornut/imgui/issues/2109), in public [docking](https://github.com/ocornut/imgui/tree/docking) branch)
- Work on Multi-Viewport / Multiple OS windows. (see [#1542](https://github.com/ocornut/imgui/issues/1542), in public [docking](https://github.com/ocornut/imgui/tree/docking) branch looking for feedback)
- Work on gamepad/keyboard controls. (see [#787](https://github.com/ocornut/imgui/issues/787))
- Work on automation and testing system, both to test the library and end-user apps. (see [#435](https://github.com/ocornut/imgui/issues/435))
- Make the examples look better, improve styles, improve font support, make the examples hi-DPI and multi-DPI aware.
// - If no fonts are loaded, dear imgui will use the default font. You can also load multiple fonts and use ImGui::PushFont()/PopFont() to select them.
// - AddFontFromFileTTF() will return the ImFont* so you can store it if you need to select the font among multiple.
// - If the file cannot be loaded, the function will return NULL. Please handle those errors in your application (e.g. use an assertion, or display an error and quit).
// - The fonts will be rasterized at a given size (w/ oversampling) and stored into a texture when calling ImFontAtlas::Build()/GetTexDataAsXXXX(), which ImGui_ImplXXXX_NewFrame below will call.
// - Read 'docs/FONTS.txt' for more instructions and details.
// - Remember that in C/C++ if you want to include a backslash \ in a string literal you need to write a double backslash \\ !

//---- Avoid multiple STB libraries implementations, or redefine path/filenames to prioritize another version
// If a menu with same the ID was already submitted, we will append to it, matching the behavior of Begin().
// We are relying on a O(N) search - so O(N log N) over the frame - which seems like the most efficient for the expected small amount of BeginMenu() calls per frame.
// If somehow this is ever becoming a problem we can switch to use e.g. a ImGuiStorager mapping key to last frame used.
