Hi al072,
I have never used "Dear Imgui" before. As far as I know, it is possible to use ChartDirector is all GUI frameworks that I know of. There is even a page in the documentation on how to do it:
https://www.advsofteng.com/doc/cdcpp.htm#othergui.htm
In brief, ChartDirector outputs the chart in standard formats, such as BMP, PNG, JPG, GIF, SVG and PDF. If a GUI framework can display one of them, it can display the charts. All GUI frameworks I know of can display at least one of them. I believe it is possible to display an image with "Dear Imgui" too.
The above page also mentions how to support hotspots and tooltips. In brief, if your GUI framework can support mouse events, you can ask ChartDirector if the mouse is hovering on a hot spot, and obtain the hot spot parameters. You can then use your GUI framework to display those information (such as in a pop-up box like a tooltip, or using any method supported by your GUI framework).
