Using window flags

New windows created using begin() function can be customized/tuned with additional flags argument. This argument is an integer bitfield so many different flags can be joined together with | operator.

Example:

imgui.set_next_window_size(300, 90)
imgui.set_next_window_position(10, 0)
imgui.begin(
    "Custom window",
    flags=imgui.WINDOW_MENU_BAR
)
imgui.text("Custom window with menu bar and borders")
imgui.end()

imgui.set_next_window_size(300, 90)
imgui.set_next_window_position(10, 100)
imgui.begin("Default Window")
imgui.text("Default window with title bar")
imgui.end()

Window flags are also available for new scrollable child regions created with begin_child() function.

Example:

imgui.begin("Scrollale regions with flags")

imgui.begin_child(
    "Child 1", height=70, border=True,
    flags=imgui.WINDOW_ALWAYS_HORIZONTAL_SCROLLBAR
)
imgui.text("inside region 1")
imgui.end_child()

imgui.begin_child(
    "Child 2", height=70, border=True,
    flags=imgui.WINDOW_ALWAYS_VERTICAL_SCROLLBAR
)
imgui.text("inside region 2")
imgui.end_child()

imgui.end()

Outputs:
