How to popup a form at postion?

[Tokay]

I know how to popup a context menu:

 if Button = mbRight then
  UniPopupMenu1.Popup(X, Y, Sender);

But how to do it with a Form? How to calculate relative X, Y params to absolute to set Left and Top of the popup Form? ClientToSreen doesn't works. But the Popup Menus can convert X and Y using the Sender.

Hello,

Sorry, can you please explain?

[Tokay]

In the project exist the main form with TUniEdit on it. When I clicked on the TUniEdit I need to show another form in the place where I do click.

Maybe something like this?

procedure TMainForm.UniEdit1MouseDown(Sender: TObject; Button: TMouseButton;
  Shift: TShiftState; X, Y: Integer);
var
  _X, _Y: Integer;
begin
  if Button = mbRight then
  begin
    _X := Self.Left + (Sender as TUniEdit).Left + X;  // +/-
    _Y := Self.Top + (Sender as TUniEdit).Top + Y; // +/-

    with UniForm1 do
    begin
      WebForm.JSInterface.JSAddListener('beforeshow', 'function(){this.setPosition('+_X.ToString()+','+_Y.ToString()+')}');
      ShowModal();
    end;
  end;
end;

Thank you for response. Second form shows, but position is wrong. Position is calculated from the form corner not the TUniEdit.

Can you make a simple testcase?

I understand what happens. Wrong position is obtained only when the TUniEdit is in the container, for example, in the TUniPanel. And this is my case - TUniEdit is the TUniDBGrid column filter.

Ok, I will check.

Try to analyze and use the method that is used here.

Thank you very much! This approach works well. I added

Quote

function mousedown(sender, x, y, eOpts){ajaxRequest(sender, "_mousedown

 as event handler in the TUniEdit, and catch it OnAjaxEvent, and there I get needed coordinates.

Ok, very good
