Description

What are the design decisions w.r.t. redrawing?

There was this earlier question:

https://github.com/Immediate-Mode-UI/Nuklear/issues/118

But I have been wondering about the usability of Nuklear for programs where one might have a lot of editable charts. Then one might e.g. edit one node, and possibly have to redraw the whole chart or even the whole GUI.

Some libraries may implement partial redrawing. I didn't find a mention of this in the Nuklear repo.

Research direction

Start by reading this issue and the earlier discussion in issue #118. The payload names no implementation files, tests, or entry points, so first clarify Nuklear's intended redraw behavior and whether partial redrawing is in scope before identifying a concrete change or completion criterion.
