Android Question [Solved] B4XPreferencesDialog - Display the dialog in the centre of the screen

johndb · May 16, 2020

I apologize if this has already been discussed but I couldn't find any mention in a search of the forums.

Is there any way of setting the placement of the B4XPreference dialog in the centre of the display? The default location is the top of the display.

Thanks for your help,

John

Remember that once the keyboard becomes visible, it hides almost half of the screen. This is why the dialog is located at the top instead of the center.

You can change the dialog position after it is displayed. This can be done if you are not using any preference that opens another dialog.

Thank you @Erel
How do I change the position after it is displayed. I don't require a keyboard as it would be a simple option selection in my case.

Thank you,

B4X:

Dim sf As Object = p.ShowDialog(d, "OK", "CANCEL")
p.Dialog.Base.Top = 50%y - p.Dialog.Base.Height / 2
Wait For (sf) Complete (Result As Int)

Make sure to use "short options" instead of "options".
