TODO TODAY : CTRL LOCK , QUICKSAVE , HOVERFLASH, ESC EXIT , OOB CURSOR CTRL

1. New icons : Control lock and quick save . Control lock is vital for preventing the UI from getting into my way when painting .

1.2 : Quick Save Icon . Just the icon , no funcrionality yet . Quicksave will increment file number and save that to the disk without you having to open anything . Quicksaves go into the quicksaves folder next to .exe ? Or in last know user open location ?

2. Flash on hover . We need it to be obvious that UI elements can be interacted with , so make them flash on hover .

3. Click SFX . Use winmm.dll and make a __SOU__ section above __WIN__ that all basic sound code goes into . Eventually I want a buzzer when you hit unmapped keys , and a DING when you hit your first valid key after hitting at least one valid key.

4. Escape to exit the control lock . If you press escape , the control lock will disengage . A fun to have would be to make the ESC key rotate the UI if ESC pressed twice , AKA pressed when the controll lock is NOT active.

5. Out of bound cursor control . The editor has been designed to allow the brush to go out of bounds and wrap back in from the other side of the screen . This needs to be better supported by attaching mouse handlers to our CLIENT WINDOW AREA instead of to the [ canvas / UI ] .

All of my channels are slowly being removed from youtube for "TOS Violation" . So I am exhausted and no longer have the willpower to make higher quality videos at this time .

I am literally walking around the house while I type this , so that if this channel gets deleted , at least I got my excercise .
