good news indeed

Can't you open an ImGui window in a new "windows" window using the docking branch? :PauseChamp:

pegperegogaucho

like a new window specifically for a imgui window

adrientd

Ah yeah, ImGui has support for that.

adrientd

But I have no plan for doing that yet.

pegperegogaucho

Any specific feature you want to make use of?

adrientd

Not anything important, but some worth to mention: - Tables, which are nice alternatives over Columns

adrientd

- Begin/EndDisabled allows to show controls in a disabled state (so you can't click but you know it exists)

pegperegogaucho

What I'm kind of missing right now is a nice way to rotate something specifically by 90 degrees as ImGuizmo tends to either rotate too much or not enough for exactly 90 degrees

adrientd

Just did a quick check, it seems that ImGuizmo::Manipulate has some snap arguments: ```snap points to a float[3] for translation and to a single float for scale or rotation. Snap angle is in Euler Degrees.```

adrientd

So maybe I can say do a snap angle of 1 degree so it will always be an integer degree.

pegperegogaucho

Sounds good!

pegperegogaucho

but maybe an angle of 45 would be better

adrientd

Maybe I can apply the snap only when holding a key (in addition to CTRL).

pegperegogaucho

Good idea!

pegperegogaucho

Another good idea would be to switch between local and global translation

pegperegogaucho

I think it's set to global right now, but maybe you want to move along the forward vector or scale

adrientd

I don't see much use of that right now. You rarely need to move individual nodes of a grouped node, and the editor even prevents you from selecting them (it always selects its parent that is direct subordinate of the sector root).

adrientd

and even if you want to move along the forward vector of an object, there is the XZ plane, and I don't really see any reason why you want to be very precise.
