The position of the text in a TextButton is sometimes odd. This happens after the initialization of the TextButton and addition to the main window. And the problem is gone once the TextButton is clicked.

Using BWidgets 1.6.2, I'm building a synthesizer GUI where each module "rack" exists as a BWidgets::Frame, forming the "case". Each Frame receives a position on the GUI. However, the ListBox that populates from the child ComboBox Widgets hangs outside of the Frame, see below:

This is expected behavior prior to layers being set as they are all on the same layer, so I set each frame to receive priority such that higher frames receive priority over lower ones using the setLayer() function based on the frame's position within the "case". However, the UI behavior remained unchanged.

So, I then had it loop through all child widgets and set the layer to be the same as the Frame itself:

Now, the ComboBox's ListBox seems to be prioritized over the lower Frame, but the SpinBox label and button widgets are not taking that Layer.

So, I ended up giving my Frame derived class a recursive setLayer member function to make sure all children are on the same layer:

Now all the widgets look to be viewed properly. However, any label text that hangs outside of the frame (in this case, "Noise" and "Experiment") are not clickable and can only be selected by using the arrow keys on the keyboard.

I don't think I should have to change the Layer of children manually in order to get the desired effect here, and there should be some more intuitive logic for allowing the widgets to prioritize layer within ComboBox in particular such that this can be more straightforward. If I'm missing anything or this should be set up differently though, please let me know!

(P.S. thanks for the library and all the tutorials, it's been fun!)

The background of the two handles "+" and "-" are not shown in HRangeScrollBar and VRangeScrollBar when initialized and added to the main window. They only become visible (and stay visible) once the scrollbar is changed (e.g., dragged). Note, the labels "+" and "-" and all the rest is/are correctly shown all the time.

Theme/Style application to ComboBox/ListBox/SpinBox is hindered because labels are created without a specified URID in the addItem function
