Is it possible to position a script detached dialog at current mouse coords ?

For the purpose of a popup list that can have the font changed.

Never tried this, but it looks like you can get mouse coordinates through `SysInfo` object, and then use the `Dialog` properties: `position` (probably to set to `monitor`) and `x`/`y`.

EDIT: If you're already in a dialog, this might be useful: [Mouse coordinates but relative to dialog's window](https://resource.dopus.com/t/mouse-coordinates-but-relative-to-dialogs-window/54550)

This is the way. You need to get mouse coordinates, then use those values to set the dialog position, and set the `position` property to `monitor`.

Many thanks. Thought it might be in Dialog object.
