Set the location of JOptionPane

Question

Hi all,
i want to show a "JOptionPane.showConfirmDialog" in a specific location on the screen.
i need the location to be ABSOLUTE and not to be relative to the parent of the JOptionPane.
i tried to make an instance of the JOptionPane then apply the method "setLocation(int x , int y)" then show it using setVisible
but this don't work
so any suggestions ???!!!!
thanx in advance

Answer 1

experiment with x,y in this
(optionPane's middle will be at x,y)
import javax.swing.*;
class Testing
  public Testing()
    int x = 100,y = 80;
    JFrame f = new JFrame();
    f.setUndecorated(true);
    f.setBounds(x,y,0,0);
    f.setVisible(true);
    JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(f,"I should appear near: "+x+", "+y);
    System.exit(0);
  public static void main(String args[]){new Testing();}
}
