if I use imgui.core.create_context() it works. even though the imgui __init__.py exports imgui.core ` VS Code extension or command-line im using neovim lazyvim. I have updated to the latest version using mason

Pyright is working as designed here, so this isn't a bug.

The imgui library is not written in Python, and it doesn't contain any type stub files that describe its interface to a type checker. Pyright can find attributes that are defined in imgui/__init__.py, but it cannot find attributes that are imported from native libraries compiled from C++. If you want this to work, you'll need to find or create your own stub files that describe the interface. For details, refer to this documentation.

For future bug reports, please provide a minimal code sample in text form. Debugging issues form partial screen shots is often difficult or impossible. Also, if you are reporting issues related to a third-party library like imgui, it's useful to know which version of the library you're using.
