SuperMario is right. I assumed that the x and y would come from a mouse event (as they normally are when showing a popup). I tried a bunch of workarrounds, but came up short so far.

It appears that this method will only accept constant values asparameters.  Any time you pass in a value generated at runtime itwill use the x and y coords of the mouse.  I did several tests andI have found no way to make this work.  It only appears to work inthe MouseDown event because you expect the popup to be displayed whereyou clicked with the x and y passed to the event. But the values passedto the event do nothing in the showpopup method.   Try changingthe value of x and y with a valuestored in a variable, if you hard code it like x=100, that will workbut that is no good at runtime.  But x=me.width will not workbecause it is not a constant.   I can think of a couple uglyworkarounds, but it would be nice to pass in a variable as x and y.

amstel:

Paste this code in the DynamicPopus sample. Does it do what you would expect?

Private Sub frameChild_MouseDown(Button As Integer, Shift As Integer, X As Single, Y As Single)
  Dim p As XtremeCommandBars.CommandBar
  Set p = CommandBars.Add("Test", xtpBarPopup)
  p.Controls.Add xtpControlButton, ID_FILE_OPEN, "Test"
 
  p.ShowPopup , X, Y
 
End Sub

Also note that supplying the x,y is optional. If they are omitted, the popup will display at the current screen cursor position.

To center a popup menu on the screen you just pass in the x and ycoordinantes of the screen to the CommandBars.ShowPopup method.  Ibelieve this will only work for command bars of type xtpBarPopup, but Icould be wrong.

         Set Popup = CommandBars.Add("Popup", xtpBarPopup)
        With Popup.Controls
         &nbs p;  .Add xtpControlButton, ID_FILE_NEW, "&New"
         &nbs p;  .Add xtpControlButton, ID_FILE_OPEN, "&Open"
         &nbs p;  .Add xtpControlButton, ID_FILE_SAVE, "&Save"
        End With
        Popup.ShowPopup  100, 100

Hope this helps.
