I am working on a simple About box that displays some info. It is a Dialog
with a BevelPanel, some text labels, and an OK button that closes the
dialog. The code looks fine, and it runs perfect. I was able to visually
build it just fine in the form designer. But now the designer has suddenly
gone wacky on me!

I cannot click on certain controls to select them. They act like they
would in a running program! When I click on a button it depresses. I
cannot grab it and move it to another location on the dialog. But I can
select it by clicking on its name over in the navigator pane, and then
edit the properties. I tried dropping other controls onto the form, and
they had the same problem. Click on a checkbox and it checks or unchecks.
If I add some tooltip text for these controls over in the property
inspector, then the tooltip text will pop up when I enter them with the
mouse pointer. Just exactly like it should work in a running program. But
remember, I'm in the form designer and have not yet run the program at
all!

I blew away the whole project, rebooted, created a new project, and
added my source files back in (this has fixed other mysterious problems
for me in the past). But it still has the same problem.

What in the heck is going on here?!
