For what it’s worth - what we do in StudioWorks is to have the subwindow that you want to open as a subwindow within your container window to start with - so at that point you are simply making it visible or invisible and the coordinates are then simply related to the location within the container itself - and as you mentioned the field coordinates give you that now……

Works well that way !
