Is it possible to position a newly created Toplevel widget relative to specific widget in another Toplevel widget?
for example:
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;
use Tk;
my $w = MainWindow->new;
my $button;
$button = $w->Button(-text => "click me", -command => sub
{
my $mw = $w->Toplevel;
# here I need somehow position the $mw over the $button
$mw->Label(-text => "hello")->pack();
})->pack;
MainLoop;
when I click the button I need a new window x/y absolute coordinates to be positioned right at the x/y absolute coordinates of the button, so the new window will overlap the button every time I click it.
UPD: problem solved using 'geometry' method
code for commented line is something like this:
my @wg = ($w->geometry =~ /\+(\d+)\+(\d+)/);
my @bg = ($button->geometry =~ /\+(\d+)\+(\d+)/);
$wg[$_] += $bg[$_] for (0..@wg-1);
$mw->geometry("+$wg[0]+$wg[1]");
