ASync and CenterMDI

[Steve Burrows]

When opening a new form on a fresh thread, it always appears in the center of Monitor 1 reagrdless of where the MDI is.

Called with :

pleaseWaitA = new PleaseWaitASync()

Snippet from  PleaseWaitASync that defines the Form Properties  :

            _t = new System.Threading.Thread(() =>
            {
                var f = new fPleaseWait();
                f.Text = title;
                f.StartPosition = Firefly.Box.UI.WindowStartPosition.CenterMDI;

Any way for it to find the correct MDI Location, or to launch it a different way (it has no Methods so cant use Create<>) ?

Got something working with a rather bizarre method by converting a Windows.Forms.FormStartPosition instead of using the FF options.

                f.StartPosition = (Firefly.Box.UI.WindowStartPosition)FormStartPosition.CenterParent;

Its not quite CenterMDI, but at least its on the correct monitor. Result!
