Hi, I’ve got a problem and I’m new to all of this… I’m trying to create menus to a private game. I used one of the examples to familiarize myself with ImGui and I tried to edit example_win32_directx9 to work for the game I’m trying to create new menus and I changed the source code but since I’m not familiar with this kind of programming I got at this impasse.
This is the main after I did the changes to the main
int main(int, char**)
{
// Create application window
WNDCLASSEX wc = { sizeof(WNDCLASSEX), CS_CLASSDC, WndProc, 0L, 0L, GetModuleHandle(NULL), NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL, _T(“CODEZERO - NORMAL CLASS”), NULL };
RegisterClassEx(&wc);
//HWND hwnd = CreateWindow(_T(“ImGui Example”), _T(“Dear ImGui DirectX9 Example”), WS_OVERLAPPEDWINDOW, 100, 100, 1280, 800, NULL, NULL, wc.hInstance, NULL);
HWND hwnd = FindWindow(NULL, _T(“CODEZERO - NORMAL CLASS”));
// Initialize Direct3D
LPDIRECT3D9 pD3D;
if ((pD3D = Direct3DCreate9(D3D_SDK_VERSION)) == NULL)
{
UnregisterClass(_T(“ImGui Example”), wc.hInstance);
return 0;
}
ZeroMemory(&g_d3dpp, sizeof(g_d3dpp));
g_d3dpp.Windowed = TRUE;
g_d3dpp.SwapEffect = D3DSWAPEFFECT_DISCARD;
g_d3dpp.BackBufferFormat = D3DFMT_UNKNOWN;
g_d3dpp.EnableAutoDepthStencil = TRUE;
g_d3dpp.AutoDepthStencilFormat = D3DFMT_D16;
g_d3dpp.PresentationInterval = D3DPRESENT_INTERVAL_ONE; // Present with vsync
//g_d3dpp.PresentationInterval = D3DPRESENT_INTERVAL_IMMEDIATE; // Present without vsync, maximum unthrottled framerate
// Create the D3DDevice
if (pD3D->CreateDevice(D3DADAPTER_DEFAULT, D3DDEVTYPE_HAL, hwnd, D3DCREATE_HARDWARE_VERTEXPROCESSING, &g_d3dpp, &g_pd3dDevice) < 0)
{
pD3D->Release();
UnregisterClass(_T("CODEZERO - NORMAL CLASS"), wc.hInstance);
return 0;

// Load Fonts
// - If no fonts are loaded, dear imgui will use the default font. You can also load multiple fonts and use ImGui::PushFont()/PopFont() to select them.
// - AddFontFromFileTTF() will return the ImFont* so you can store it if you need to select the font among multiple.
// - If the file cannot be loaded, the function will return NULL. Please handle those errors in your application (e.g. use an assertion, or display an error and quit).
// - The fonts will be rasterized at a given size (w/ oversampling) and stored into a texture when calling ImFontAtlas::Build()/GetTexDataAsXXXX(), which ImGui_ImplXXXX_NewFrame below will call.
// - Read 'misc/fonts/README.txt' for more instructions and details.
// - Remember that in C/C++ if you want to include a backslash \ in a string literal you need to write a double backslash \\ !

I want to mention that when I click on the frame of the game(can’t be noticed in the recording) the background goes to the color I set and doesn’t flash.
I’m new to this but any slight of guidance/information will be appreciated.
