Are you using the mx.core.Application.alert? if so that call does not return a reference to the alert which you wouln't be able to position it. You would have to use the mx.controls.Alert.show() instead.

We are calling the alert from within a VBox Component (the move()
method should only work with a canvas), But as Aldo said, we tried
"myAlert.centerPopUp( blabla )" which is positioning the Alert
anywhere but the center of it's assigned reference.
