hi,
define dialog odlg
ntop:=myrestorentop()
nleft:=myrestorenleft()
nbottom:=myrestorenleft()
nright:=myrestorenright()

activate dialog odlg ;
on init (odlg:move(ntop,nleft,nright-nleft,nbottom-ntop));
valid (mysave( odlg:ntop,odlg:nleft,odlg:nbottom,odlg:nright),.t.)

The dialg position moves some rows up, why ?

Regrads!

Shuming,

Try doing this:

odlg:Move( nTop, nLeft, nRight - nLeft + 1, nBottom - nTop + 1 )

Still can not move to the proper postion .

odlg:ntop:=240
odlg:nleft:=2
odlg:nbottom:=678
odlg:nright:=548

@1,2 BUTTON "aaa" OF odlg ACTION msginfo(cvaltochar(odlg:ntop)+","+cvaltochar(odlg:nleft)+","+cvaltochar(odlg:nbottom)+","+cvaltochar(odlg:nright))

// result : 191,-1,665,555 ,not 240,2,678,548

Shuming,

dialogs use "units" not pixels, so if you want to set the exact position move them from the ON INIT clause of the dialog

on init odlg:move() can't move to the proper postion.
odlg:Move( nTop, nLeft, nRight - nLeft + 1, nBottom - nTop + 1 )
Each time dialog moves more top .

Have you tried ?

odlg:Move( nTop - 1, nLeft, nRight - nLeft + 1, nBottom - nTop + 1 )

still move and move.

Shuming,

Just to the top or to the left too ?

In my case, I use GetRect() method for save a pre-postions.

Thank Antonio and CharlesKwon!
GetWndRect(odlg:hwnd) can be used to save the postion, while saving odlg:ntop,odlg:nleft,.. no use.

ACTIVATE DIALOG oDlg
on INIT (odlg:move(ntop1,nleft1,nright1-nleft1+1,nbottom1-ntop1+1),.t.)
VALID (arect:=GetWndRect(odlg:hwnd),;
oserver:query("insert into browseset (id,cvalue) ;
values ('sub0804','"+cvaltochar(arect[1])+","+cvaltochar(arect[2])+","+cvaltochar(arect[3])+","+cvaltochar(arect[4])+",') ;
on duplicate key update cvalue='"+cvaltochar(arect[1])+","+cvaltochar(arect[2])+","+cvaltochar(arect[3])+","+cvaltochar(arect[4])+",'"),.t.)
