Just move it in the Appear event. Add an event listener for Appear and get
your values then, make needed changes, and when the control gets displayed
it should be where you want it.
You can not get the absolute coordinates of a DOM element before it's
rendered, they don't exist. And since you decided to do this inline instead
of making the whole page a qooxdoo app, those are the rules you need to play
by.
