OutputLayoutManager.SetWindowPosition(Variable, Variable, Variable, Variable, Variable) Method

Top

Description

Sets the position of the top-left corner of a window. For constrained windows, the origin is located at the top-left corner of the Workspace. For unconstrained windows, the origin is located at the top-leftmost point over all screens. Change OutputLayout.ShowNewWindowBehavior to show windows without any arrangement to prevent tiling when new windows are added to the Output Workspace. Call OutputLayout.ApplyUpdates() to perform the action.
