I think I can see the answer to my problem in respect of the Message popup  
"dialog". After looking at the Gambas source for a message box and at the QT 
qmessage.h file it seems likely that the necessary XY properties are buried 
too deep to be accessed.

The problem now becomes can one write a class which inherits gb.qt.Message 
(and presumably the GTK version too)  which can confine a message box to the 
boundaries which it defines?

I think perhaps I need to know a bit more about how QT and GTK decide where to 
place a message box. Does anyone know?
