end

# init CImGui
ctx = CImGui.CreateContext()
CImGui.StyleColorsDark()
ImGui_ImplGlfw_InitForOpenGL(GLMakie.to_native(GLMakie.global_gl_screen()), true)
ImGui_ImplOpenGL3_Init(150)

x = rand(10);
y = rand(10);
colors = rand(10);
scene = scatter(x, y, color = colors)


# replace renderloop
#GLMakie.opengl_renderloop[] = imgui_renderloop
# new version
screen = AbstractPlotting.backend_display(GLMakie.GLBackend(), scene)
set_window_config!(renderloop=imgui_renderloop)
screen

Better to free resources here:

finally
    ImGui_ImplOpenGL3_Shutdown()
    ImGui_ImplGlfw_Shutdown()
    CImGui.DestroyContext(ctx)
    destroy!(screen)
end

I updated the code snippet.

What's a good way to pass my custom prerender in the draw loop? E.g. something like
https://github.com/Gnimuc/CImGui.jl/blob/master/examples/Renderer.jl

This code is being discussed at Gnimuc/CImGui.jl#114
Any idea about integrating a GLMakie plot in a CImGui window (or conversely) with latest version of both CImGui.jl and Makie.jl
