Hi Devyn,

Yes, also the same. :(
And I attempted the following snippet using "50%".
It works except dynamic creation. I need to resize or
reappear window for displaying the message.
Shoes.app do
s = flow :top => "50%", :left => "50%"
start do
para "Stack is at (#{s.top}, #{s.left})"
end
end
Umm...
