Alert Component X Y Position...

[carlosrapa]

I have a button that loads an alert component... however it loads right were the button is... which is the very bottom right of the screen... does anyone know how to edit the XY position of the ALERT component??? i have tried all that i can... here is my current actionscript...

this.order_verify_btn.onRelease = function() {
    var o = _global.styles.Alert.message=new mx.styles.CSSStyleDeclaration();
    o.fontSize = 11.5;
    import mx.controls.Alert;
    myClickhandler = function (evt) {
        if (evt.detail == Alert.YES) {
            var url20 = "javascript:tackupdate('"+Email+"','"+Contact+"')";
            getURL(url20);
            gotoAndStop("the_end");
        }
    };
    Alert.show("If you click yes you will proceed however you will no long have the option to edit your cushion", "Warning", Alert.YES | Alert.NO, this, myClickhandler);
};

Hey, welcome carlosrapa,

You can use move(x, y) for that, like this:

o.move(100, 200);

Hey carlosrapa,

try this:

var message=Alert.show("If you click yes you will proceed however you will no long have the option to edit your cushion", "Warning", Alert.YES | Alert.NO, this, myClickhandler);
message.move(100, 100);

That should do it.
