According to IM V1 (P. 407), here is the way to highlight the default button
so thast it looks like the normal highlit default button:

PenSize(3,3);
InsetRect(displayRect,-4,-4);
FrameRoundRect(displayRect,16,16);

where displayRect is the rect of the button.

According to AUG, if you don't do this, then you shouldn't support the
return and enter key as default substitutes in your DLOG.
