Is there a way to make input_text to show only the last part of the text while deactivated #90

Hi,

I am displaying a long path in a input_text widget, since the user should be able to edit it. As it is really long, I would like to display only the last part of the path, something like:

path_example

I've tried using the callbacks and setting the cursor position, but then, this doesn't allow any editing because the cursor is always at the end. Any idea how to do it?

Hello,

This is a more question related to ImGui I guess, and by searching in the issues, you can find this. As far as I saw, it may be not possible.

But, you would need to search for a file dialog library, such as portable-file-dialogs or ImFileDialog , which by the way are provided directly inside the sister library ImGui Bundle

while deactivated

You can detect its state and change the content based on "is it activated or not". This + ImGui::CalcTextSize
