This is for anyone who makes a new dialog box in C::B

(1/1)

In the dialog class contructor, after calling LoadDialog() you should call this function. I placed the call right before returning from the constructor where possible for consistency.


--- Code: ---PositionUserDialog(this);

--- End code ---

This will position the dialog where the user has requested it be placed. PositionUserDialog is declared in <sdk/xtra_classes.h>, or you can just include <sdk/sdk.h>

The full discussion leading to this decision is here:

I fixed all the existing cases and posted a patch but it is up to you to add this line if you make a new dialog from here on out. :)

Why not use this->CenterOnParent()? It is nicer when you don't use C::B maximized... ;)

They do exactly the same thing with the exception of dialogs that don't have a parent.

Please read the first post again. It has been changed based on the discussion between thomas and I. :)
