Fixed GitHub Issues that are implemented in this JS code: 
#11 : Option to lock objects in hidden state (bar, beam, circle, dashpot, fix1, fix12, fix123, fix13, polygon, q, rope, springc, springt, wall)
#12 : Make the beam object clickable
#13 : Suppress infobox at "rot" points
#28 : Move "force" by dragging the vector
#30 : "force": Prevent forces to have zero length
#35 : Make toStack() more robust (cleanupName())
#37 : Grid lines to the background
