Thanks, Larry. I must admit I have been struggling to get your code to show any bitmaps

Here's the original code in IBasic, plus exe, if anyone feels like playing it

I got it in a form where it will compile and run. The only way I could do it was to indent all the lines. That's the only way I can program. I don't see how you can follow the program without indenting but there's more then one way to skin a cat. My mind just won't work that way.
Anyway, I got it going so at least you got something you can troubleshoot.

Games and Graphics / Marblez game

This game was created in IBasic a long time ago, and I used to play it. It's good

I decided to convert it to IWB, but I am struggling with some ENDIFs and ENDSELECTs, either missing or in the wrong place, and I can't get my head round it. Anyone care to help convert it, so it compiles correctly?

I agree with Brian, the menu shading is very nice.  It took me a minute to figure it out.  It went right past me when I pulled the program up to take a look at it.

You're welcome to anything I post. That has always been the spirit here.

Bruce,

I have only just seen this, so it has all been done and dusted now - sorry. But I was impressed with how you did the menu shading, so I have 'borrowed' your code for a program of mine, if that's okay

I probably will regret this, but I believe I have solved the problem. I changed the return value of one of the handlers to 0.

The program is not complete yet. I just need to save the new data and work on the cosmetics.

BTW: The image of the car being towed was created by chatGPT. It supposed to be my car (KIA Stinger).

This is crazy. The only new change is to put some text and an image on winMain and the bug is back,

You can try making the change I made elimating the default style and recompile.

Just ran the exe and got the exact same as you.  Even recompiled and got the same results.
