Just found out that software remote (Windows client) popup panel position is relative to Window's screen not to software remote's windows.
I used to setup popup panles to simulate tab controls and align them nicely to software remote. This works perfectly If I lock the software remote's position. But when I moved the software remote, the alignment will be out.
Of course, I know others may prefer the popup panels to be relative to Windows screen but this does not work good for me. Any ideas to smoothen my setup?
TIA.

That's great Scott.
While working on the pop-ups, please consider this:
Following your suggestion in the help file, I use pop-up panels for devices like DVD and VCR, so they cover part of the main panel, while the part not covered by the pop-ups is used for general things like lighting.
While switching from HouseBot client to another application (using alt+tab or the taskbar, without minimizing the client first), the pop-up panel remains (while the main panel does not). It is more appropriate in such cases to make it dissapear.
TIA.
