                     flat progress bar, and gray for button style.
                     Corrected a drawing error when other colours than default
                     where selected. it showed a line 1 pixel long at the bottom.

      Version 1.0.3: Corrected a repaint error incorrect rectangle repainted
                     it displayed paint area as only the visible area, so multiple
                     box were painted. fixed.
