   support 32-bits indices. Most examples back-ends have been modified to support the VtxOffset field.
 - ImDrawList: Added ImDrawCmd::IdxOffset value, equivalent to summing element count for each draw command.
   This is provided for convenience and consistency with VtxOffset.
+- ImDrawCallback: Allow to override the signature of ImDrawCallback by #define-ing it. This is meant to
+  facilitate custom rendering back-ends passing local render-specific data to the draw callback.
 - ImFontAtlas: FreeType: Added RasterizerFlags::Monochrome flag to disable font anti-aliasing. (#2545)
   Combine with RasterizerFlags::MonoHinting for best results.
 - ImFontGlyphRangesBuilder: Fixed unnecessarily over-sized buffer, which incidentally was also not
