Set display position of input message boxes

Anonymous

Is there any way to set where input message boxes display?

I would like my message boxes to display on my second screen, and in the same position each time for each message box.

What do you mean by "message box".  It is a standard Windows message box displayed using MsgBox or MessageBox.Show?  If it is then I don't believe there is a way to control where it's displayed.  Windows has it's own built-in rules.

 

If it's your own custom form that you want to display, then you can control where it's displayed.  Creating your own dialog instead of using the standard message box is the workaround to be able to display it where you want.

Thank you for your response.

I am getting frustrated with the Input boxes that Ilogic display as part of its rules. They all display in different places and on different screens.

iLogic dialogs are not standard system dialogs so they could support positioning but it's not currently exposed.  I would suggest adding an item in the "Inventor Idea" forum to raise awareness.
