vs GUI Updates - the latest from b+
#9
OK I made a wrong turn when mouse over was all that was needed to change the Active Control. Nope you have to left or right click the control to make it active. 

I also started printing out the List Box like I did with Text Box so that all the letters will align and wont be thrown off by more or less spaces.

Here is GUI Adding Machine. With the redeveloped BM still embedded in file, the vs GUI.BI, direntry.h file and arial.ttf you can get from 1st Post if you don't have it already.

' GUI.BM 2022-07-20 add Function LstHighliteItem$
' Change MainRouter clicking outside a control was changing the active control, no more!
' If Mouse Over a Control, that controls becomes active, don't try and Tab off a control that a
' mouse is over, mouse wins!
' 2022-07-25
' Do display after all drwX's
' Font Heights for Text Boxes, Btns, Pic Box (but that is stupid no room for pic) now only have to
' be 2 pixels less than Control Height.
' Removed N6, Text2, Fhdl, FontFile, ImgFile from the Control Type for vs GUI.
' Aha! to do an image file instead of Text use ">Filename.ext" for the text.
' 2022-07-26
' Another fix in MainRouter, Exit For when found the control mouse is inside. Needed this when a
' Click switched screens and threw errors because it was a whole different set of controls!

' GUI.BM 2022-07-28 More updates
' 1. Wrong turn was made activating controls with just MouseOver, wait for click into the control.
'    Then use the clear button immediately because Main Router shoots all over updating controls.
' 2. Clear MouseButton as soon as we know it was released by user, use OldMoses method
'    didn't work back to _delay 2 but immediately after click is detected.
' 3. I want aligned columns of text in list box, this means to print text like I do in Text Box.
' 4. Coming soon Speaking of Aligning, I want Labels aligned, N1 is for images, so N2 is next up.
'    N1 for image handles, N2 Alinment = 0 for centered, = 1 Left Aligned, = 2 Right Aligned
