// the fox panel allows for having editable digits on standard panels
// it works by having a mother panel, the main backboard, then creating a panel that only has a button. this button should be invsible or able to look as if it belongs on the backboard
// the function from the button will allow for editing of the text. Pressing enter will set the new number typed in. If letters are typed in it will ignore it.
// If the number is changed outside of the button's function it will be updated.
// if the panel is moved, the button panel and the text will move with it.
