in thread Tk - Place DialogBox in middle of top window

Hello,

Thank you for your answer. To get the geometry information via winfo is working fine. So it is no problem to compute the geometry information I need to place the dialogbox in the middle of the main window.

My problem is how can I set the geometry information to the dialogbox?

I tried the following code:

my $db = $mw->DialogBox(-title => "Status", -buttons => ['Cancel'], -geometry => "300x300x+100+100");

I got this error:

Tk::Error: Can't set -geometry to `300x300x+100+100' for Tk::DialogBox +=HASH(0x1d85574): unknown option "-geometry" at c:/Perl/site/lib/Tk/C +onfigure.pm line 46. at c:/Perl/site/lib/Tk/Derived.pm line 294

Thank you for your help.

Greetings,

Dirk
