Re: wxColourDialog, set position on screen (Windows)?

Thanks for the help.

Am I right in saying I need to add "colrdlgg.cpp" to my project to get 
access to the generic dialog?

I appreciate that it does not look like the native dialog, but I've got a 
toolbar along the bottom of the app. And it appears fine over the toolbar, 
but you have to move it up to click the "ok" button, I'd much prefer it I 
could just set the location manually to avoid the user having extra clicks.

Tony.
