How to position dialog in relation to parent window [message #43317]

How do I position a dialog in relation to its parent.

GetRect()/SetRect() in the dialog constructor fails (presumably because the dialog window has not yet been created).

In which function should I reposition the dialog? Are GetRect()/SetRect() the appropriate calls?

Or is there a simpler way to position a dialog relative to its parent?

Thanks,

awksed

FIXED:-

MyDlg dlg(this);

dlg.Open();

Rect pr = GetRect();
Rect r = dlg.GetRect();
Size s = r.GetSize();

r.top = pr.top + 10;
r.SetSize(s);

dlg.SetRect(r);

dlg.Execute();
