way to centre SelectDirectory about main form?

[CADTenchy]

Hi,

I've now managed to centre all my pop-ups to my main form, except for a SelectDirectory dialog.
Is there a way to position it that isn't complex (I did find one way, was pretty complex looking extra function).

Or can I call another more easily positioned folder browsing dialog?

Was it a labeled as a callback function of some kind? Actually, that's the only way I'm aware of to do it - to move the window through the API. Which actually is simpler than it looks - most of the function you found is probably just math.

There's really no other way I'm aware of.

Hi Glenn,

Yes it's a callback function.
Looks like I'll have to use that then, but edit it a tad to centre on the form rather than the screen. Looks fairly straightforward mod tho (gotcha's allowing )

Here is the source FYI:

Ok, so now I have implemented the functions in this link:

All is working great, but in the SelectDirectory the callback function is replacing, I specified the starting directory.
I can't see (bit above me) the right place, (if any?) to do this in these functions.

Can it be done pls?
