How it works?

lv_gui_designer is very dependent on LittlevGL v6.0:

USE EVENT
Three parts: Creator, Simulator, Setting, just three lv_win object.
Creator: Select what widget you want to create at Simulator, and the widget will enable "drag" (lv_obj_set_drag & lv_obj_set_drag_parent), so we can drag-and-drop it.
Simulator: Only its child can be drag-and-drop, its grandchild is not a drag-able widget, for example, there are a Button on the Simulator with a Label, due to Button is a auto-align Container, Label will be sticked to Button's centre. Every widget on there has a callback function to transport some information to Settting.
Setting: Select a widget on Simulator by LayerView, we can create a new son-widget on it and change its attribute, style, animation, we can delete it.
