Without luck, I've tried to move a progress dialog to different parts of the screen depending on what's in the background. This works for things like the home page menu, where I can use Skin.HasSetting(lowermainmenu) as a condition. However, things like Control.IsVisible(57) have no effect on the dialog. I'm assuming this is because the dialog window can't "see" the Control to know whether it's visible or not.

Is that right? If so, is there a workaround?

this is purely a guess here but isn't that kind of what the new window get property stuff nuka added is usefull for ?

And yes you are correct in why it wont work because its looking for control 57 int he dialog not the lower window

Correct. Basically you'd have to extend the control.isvisible to support a window id in addition to the control id to do this I think.
