Nice, I like it very much. Good job! :)
One issue, it wont let me resize the window horizontally to make it smaller, only larger.

EDIT: It does let me if I make it larger first, and then afterwards make it smaller than it originally was.

Hi, I like it too. The ability to move text with the wheel is nice, every window behaves differently as I look. Is it so deliberate - to close windows right-click with click anywhere at the top?

Nice work, Vincent! That blue circle background is good.

Hi v,

Drag-able controls and multi-line editable textboxes are nice. What are your plans for Command prompt? A shell command line thing or your own set of things to do? Looking forward to mouse inputs and selecting in text boxes.

And when I click the little square in top right corner I get a tic tac toe grid... are there plans for there also?

Oh look what's behind textbox 2... :)

The windows are re-sizable?

That's the resize box, the crown jewel of the entire thing. Drag the mouse about it to get a feel how it works. But no, no further plans, just wanted to show off the command prompt to key bone. The entire program is intended as a demo for proper doubly linked lists in QB64

Oh I got it now, that is pretty cool!

And this is just a demo for doubly linked lists? Pretty elaborate demo!

Hmm... should I ask about doubly linked lists when I haven't even played with linked lists? (yet)
