GUI Elements

[benjaminrwilson]

I had two questions regarding GUI elements.

1. Is there a way to add a text field as a GUI component?
2. Additionally, is it possible to have a "dropdown menu"? e.g., a listing of files in a directory.

Thanks!

1. Editable text box? There's dvz_gui_textbox()
2. Yes I'd like to add a dropdown menu asap.

Adding new controls is just a matter of wrapping them properly in the Datoviz C API. There's a checklist for developers here. The functionality is provided by Dear ImGui which as a huge library of rich GUI controls.
