Update TransX: Typed input button and graphics fix

[atomicdryad]

The input system of TransX has always irked me as sometimes I just want to type in a value, without having to click my way there via +/-adj and ++/--

So I added an [ENT] button that lets one do just that. Then, while testing, I got distracted by the disappearing-graphics issue, so I fixed that too...in a way. OOP and private variables have made it hard to find -what- is causing the deletion of sketchpad pens, but TransX now detects and deals with it:

Just downloaded and tested on a LEO-Moon (free-return)-GEO plan. It works magnificently! :thumbup:

As for the graphics issue, it ussually happened to me, when i make plans with many stages, (usually more than 6-7). This time i set up a 13 stage one with no problems so far.

Thank you very much! This is exactly what was missing from TransX.

When looking over things I'm starting to suspect there's no bug after all. The SVN code I pulled was relatively recent.

Unless a slingshot plan is -not- supposed to look like this?

(And if there was, it was covered up by my fix, not caused by it ~~).

This is exactly what was missing from TransX.

It's missing something else now...I may add support for input such as:
65535+10
Because right now one must do:
65535(backspace x 5)10+

I may be a typer, but I'm a lazy one...
