The dhtmlxCalendarObject has been linked to an input box. Unfortunately the calendar box is displayed right of the input box and is hidden by a flash file that is running right of the input box. Is there an option to position the dhtmlxCalendarObject with fixed x and fixed y values?

In case, when you creating calendar linked to input - it initial position will be always right to input ( can be changed only by source code modification - dhtmlxcalendar.js , line 493 )
The positions of calendar object can be changed by
calendar.setPosition(x,y); // x and y are int values
Dear support,
thank you for your quick help. The file dhtmlxcalendar.js has only one declaration using setPosition in line 1190:
/**
@desc: set position for calendar object
@type: public
@topic: 0
/
dhtmlxCalendarObject.prototype.setPosition = function(argA,argB,argC){
if(typeof(argA)==‘object’){
var posAr = this.getPosition(argA)
var left = posAr[0]+argA.offsetWidth+(argC||0);
var top = posAr[1]+(argB||0);
}
this.entObj.style.position = “absolute”;
this.entObj.style.top = (top||argA)+“px”;
this.entObj.style.left = (left||argB)+“px”;
}
Is that the part that has to be changed?
Best regards

If you need just to set position of calendar you can use
calendar.setPosition(x,y);
where calendar - object returned by dhtmlxCalendar constructor.
If you want to change default behavior please check dhtmlxgrid.js line 493
with (div.style) {
position = ‘absolute’;
display = ‘none’;
marginLeft = this.con.offsetWidth+‘px’;
top = atop;
left = aleft;
zIndex = “99”;
This is styles of calendars parent container, you can update them in any necessary way.
If you need just to set position of calendar you can use
calendar.setPosition(x,y);
where calendar - object returned by dhtmlxCalendar constructor.
Thanks that was the trick
Best regards
