Hi Jim,

Try and add your logic to the very end of the 'preOpenStack' handler.
That handler fiddles with the width and top of the stack so many times that you 
might as well let it do its thing and then move it yourself at the very end.
I tried putting the following line in and it seemed to work on my Mac:
##
set the left of this stack to 100
##

Subject: Re: "Badge" in answer modal?

Jan,

I thought I would take you up on your challenge to be adventurous and try to 
alter the loc of the answer dialog box by changing the script of the box.

By script, I got the script of card 1 of stack "dialog box", found the line in 
the PreopenStack handler where the loc is set, i.e.:

    set the loc of this stack to the screenloc

I then added 200 to the second item of the screenloc, altered that line in the 
script, and reset the script of the box.

As a check, I then got the script of the box and I could see that the new loc 
had been applied,

I then called answer again but it continued to show in at the original 
screenLoc. The new script didn't seem to take.

Is there a way to change the loc of the answer dialog box? There are times when 
it is just very inconvenient.

I seem to recall a discussion of this topic some time ago.

Jim Hurley
