Word-wrapping in ImGui::Text

Word-wrapping in ImGui::Text

[ocornut]

Added in trunk.

• simple api TextWrapped()
• extended api PushTextWrapPos() / PushTextWrapPos()

Let me know if that works for you.

[ocornut]

Will do that. It is useful if you want to display blurbs of text in a gui.

Nice! Any way I could help?
Idea's for extra flags:

• Wrap only words (no words cut in half, except for words larger than the window)
• Wrap sentences (prefer wrapping after dot(.) or comma(,))

I am still unsure how to expose the feature. I don't think it should be in by default on ImGui::Text() because that can be used for so many reason (detailed/intricate layouts). I am also hesitant to introduce new API because there's already variants (TextV, TextColored, etc.) and adding a new one would lead to combinatory.explosion.

a. Add a Push/Pop style setting
b. Add in-string tagging (convenient but rather weird)
c. Additionally I could still one function variant e.g TextWrapped() for common use, leaving the Push/Pop accessible for other cases. So there won't be a TextWrappedColored function, etc.

I think I'll do a+c

That's marvellous, thanks a lot!
