Nov 2, 2016 at 9:49 comment added legends2k dear imgui seems to be a good example of how versatile IMGUIs can be. I'm yet to try it but it seems quite promising.
Jul 12, 2012 at 21:36 comment added cheshirekow @bobobobo Agreed. It's popular because it exists. It is the "official" gui for ogre (whatever that means) but I find it quite cumbersome to code. Also, the RAD gui builder is way buggy (still in development).
Sep 8, 2011 at 4:19 comment added bobobobo -1. I get the feeling that CEGUI is popular only because it exists and people mention it as a default goto (like this). When I used it, I found it awkward and extremely clunky.
Feb 22, 2011 at 16:57 comment added Kylotan I had my first experience of IMGUI recently, and felt that it was a big backwards step. As you say, it's great for a simple HUD or a static toolbar, but pretty awful for anything dynamic, hostile to having artists or designers create layouts, and coerces you towards munging presentation and logic code together in one place.
