Summary
-------

The maskbox cursor positionning is strange

Type             : Bug
Priority         : High
Gambas version   : Master
Product          : GUI components


Description
-----------

Hi !
I use the dates and ValueBox widgets more intensively, and I observe problems related to the positioning of the cursor when taking focus.

This makes my forms very impractical to use.

For example,
On a Currency type ValueBox,
ValueBox1.SetFocus sends the cursor to the end of the textbox and not to the comma.
(by the way, it would be nice if in France the point could serve as a numeric comma... it would be more practical to stay on the numeric keypad)


For dates,

after entering the day, the separator is either automatically skipped or not, you would have to choose, impossible to enter a date without looking at your screen :-/.

I think this is all related to the maskbox
