Topic: DosLib - position of dialogues

[Peter2]

I know that DosLib has an extra site at GitHub and that it is open source, but ....

I have problems that some dialogues are always displayed in the centre of the screen, and for looping through tons of elements it would be better that the dialogues are (re)displayed on the last used position. I made a suggestion at Github https://github.com/dalefugier/DOSLib/issues/13, but until now there is no modification.
Are there some ideas to solve this issue? (I try to avoid to replace the DosLib-Mesageboxes with an Open-DCl dialogue ..)

Thanks and regards

Not exactly trivial

CAcUiDialog has built-in tools to store the size and positions

The built in dialogs are harder because there’s no direct method to set their positions.
You must use a hook like

this example would need to be expanded to GetWindowRect on close to persist the data.

Thanks for the answer,
but this is far beyond my knowledge. For me, I used an Autohotkey-script to watch and move the dialogue, but this can not be used by all my co-workers. So it looks that I have to use OpenDCL...
