Project upgraded to .Net Framework 4.8

Enhancements

• Added move buttons (left, right, up, down) in designer to precisely move all selected controls (across multiple sections) with snap to grid functionality.
• Preview Form Title will show text "Preview" when preview is called as ModalForm
• Added new properties in Label and Expression control for highlighting: Highlight Condition, Highlight Font, Highlight Font Color, Highlight Back Color etc. If condition is True Highlight Font properties will be used.

Corrections

• After selecting Font Style from Property, the FontName was getting reset to Default OS font. Now it will preserve the selected font.
• Solved runtime error when multiple Image objects where selected and Image property was null (no image selected in the control)
• Solved runtime error which occurred onPaint of selection rectangle of (mainly Label) control.
