Fixes
- CBCGPLightBoxDialog: the title is properly updated now when the window caption was changed using WM_SETTEXT message.

- Addresses issue with pane dividers, pane dragging rectangles and MDI tab group dividers appearance during dragging/resizing. The redesign was caused by incorrect working of the standard Windows dragging rectangles mechanism in the latest OS builds (user sees annoying rectangle trails).
- CBCGPMenuButton: addresses issue with control resizing when parameter bCalcOnly of SizeToContent method is TRUE.

- CBCGPToolBar: addresses problem with unexpected closing dropped-down menu when user moves the mouse cursor to another button without menu.
