Improves Grid control with enhanced cell formatting.
Features
- Dialogs and Forms
- BCGPMessageBox: Improved dialog appearance when caption width exceeds the screen size. In addition, a new global variable CBCGPMessageBox::m_nLimitCaptionWidth allows you to limit the dialog width in case of very long caption text. E.g. if you set this variable to 70, the caption width will be limited to 70 percent of the screen width.
- CBCGPStaticLayout: Added the ability to disable layout with incorrect (non-existing) controls. If upon adding an anchor the layout manager cannot find a control with the specified ID, the layout is disabled for this window.
- Grid and Report Controls

- Added SVG icons support for the header and cell grid icons.
