Android Question B4XView - SetLayoutAnimated - Top position doesn't work

[Roberto P.]

Hi all,

why doesn't the top parameter of the SetLayoutPosition function work? even setting a in the top parameter the position always remains the same.
See example:

Sub btnCustom_Click
    Dim p As B4XView = xui.CreatePanel("")
    
    p.SetLayoutAnimated(0, 200dip, 1500dip, 300dip, 350dip)
    p.LoadLayout("CustomDialog")
    p.Top = 1350dip ' my test'

    dialog.PutAtTop = True 'put the dialog at the top of the screen
    Wait For (dialog.ShowCustom(p, "OK", "", "CANCEL")) Complete (Result As Int)
    If Result = xui.DialogResponse_Positive Then
        dialog.Show(fieldFirstName.Text & " " & fieldLastName.Text, "OK", "", "")
    End If
End Sub

Your question is not really related to B4XView.
B4XDialog changes the top position internally.

Why do you want to change the top position?

You can do it like this:

Dim sf As Object = dialog.ShowCustom(p, "OK", "", "CANCEL")
dialog.Base.Top = 20dip
 Wait For (sf) Complete (Result As Int)
