Greetings…

I would like to set the location of a popup to x=center and y=200. How to accomplish with script? The setLocation requires two args and I only want to set one.

Cheers,  
Steve

From top of my head…

```auto
window = system.gui.getWindow("Popup")
system.nav.centerWindow(window)
window.setLocation(windows.X,200)

```

or something like:

```auto
window.setLocation(parentwindow.width/2 - window.width/2,200)

```
