I have a table that has a column containing an embedded view. The embedded view contains a OneShotButton with the confirm property enabled. When I click the OneShotButton that is contained in the table, the confirm popup opens off to the left and either above or below its row (depending on how high/low the row is on the screen). I would like the confirm popup to open on top of the button. I am using version 8.1.40, so maybe this is some old issue that has since been taken care of, but I am stuck with 8.1.40.

I don't think you can ever guarantee placement, as so much of this is under the browser's control. If you wish to control behavior, you should make the popup **modal** , or, perhaps, disable the button in the script that opens the popup.
