Hello everyone! I am happy to announce ImPlot v0.17, the first release since I (@brenocq) stepped up as the new maintainer.

I want to thank @epezent for creating this incredible library and for trusting me to steward it moving forward. ImPlot is now back under active development!

📦 ImPlot3D v0.3 Released

Today we are also releasing ImPlot3D v0.3.

ImPlot3D is an extension of ImPlot designed for high-performance 3D visualization. It shares the same API philosophy as ImPlot and ImGui, making it easy to integrate into your existing projects. v0.3 brings massive precision improvements, new log scales, and image plotting.

🔭 Looking Ahead: ImPlotSpec (v0.18)

We are planning some exciting changes to improve the overall API experience for the next release (v0.18). The goal is to introduce ImPlotSpec, which will simplify how plots are configured and styled.

We are currently looking for community feedback on this design. Please check out https://github.com/epezent/implot/pull/519 and let us know your thoughts.

✨ Feature Highlights

Legend Scrolling

Legends can now handle large numbers of items gracefully with the new scrolling support, implemented by @epezent.

Exploding Pie Charts

Pie charts just got more interactive! You can now use the ImPlotPieChartFlags_Exploding flag to highlight slices on hover, thanks to @SamuMazzi.
