ImGuiGLFW Creates Multiple Windows When Dragging to Reposition

[RKirlew]

Trying to run the example code but this happens when I try to reposition the window.

// - 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.md' for more instructions and details.

Did you solve it?

[parag-shendye]

I tried latest version of ImGui from conan and the example with glfw opengl3, it is still rendering multiple windows.

1280, 720

1280, 720

So unfortunately that's valid (aka not zero). I'm saying unfortunately because I don't know what is happening.
You may have some software applying hooks, or weird OpenGL drivers, i don't know.
I would suggesting updating your GPU drivers first.

Then I suggest you comment out ALL THE IMGUI related code in your file.
Keep only this in the main loop:

        glfwPollEvents();
        int display_w, display_h;
        glfwGetFramebufferSize(window, &display_w, &display_h);
        glViewport(0, 0, display_w, display_h);
        glClearColor(clear_color.x * clear_color.w, clear_color.y * clear_color.w, clear_color.z * clear_color.w, clear_color.w);
        glClear(GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT);

        // Swap buffers
        glfwSwapBuffers(window);

And if you can see the color at all...

[parag-shendye]

I updated the gpu driver and commented out all ImGui code, the screen does not show the expected color

[parag-shendye]

I mean it shows no color at all

[ocornut]

Then it is not an imgui problem at all as you are not using imgui code.
