Python 2.7 under Windows: How can we control the position of
Tkinter's common dialogs?
Here's what we've discovered:
* Certain common dialogs always open up relative to their
parent window
* Certain common dialogs always open up centered on the user's
desktop
* All common dialogs appear to ignore the optional parent=
parameter
Questions:
* How can we force a dialog to open up relative to its parent
window?
* How can we force a dialog to open up centered on the user's
desktop?
Background:
import tkColorChooser as colorchooser
import tkFileDialog as filedialog
import tkMessageBox as messagebox
# always open up relative to parent windows
fileOpen = filedialog.askopenfilename()
fileOpens = filedialog.askopenfilenames()
fileSaveAs = filedialog.asksaveasfilename()
color = colorchooser.askcolor()
# always open up centered on desktop
folderOpen = filedialog.askdirectory()
messagebox.askquestion()
