I have a custom dialog in attachedObjects[]. How can I set its layout properties to center ? I tried using docklayout but it didn't work.

Hi _NishantShah,

Yeap, that's the way but you will need to set the height and width to be able to set it.

Check the CustomDialogAlarm.qml file, available under:

https://github.com/blackberry/Cascades-Samples/blob/master/cascadescookbookqml/assets/CustomDialogAl...

Hope this helps.

Sorry but I forgot to mention that I have fixed my orientation to landscape mode. In lanscape the dialog doesn't appear at the center. Even in that cookbook example of fire alarm.

Hi,

you will need to set the height and width anyway, if it is fixed you can try something like the sample bellow ( based on cookbook, just changed height and width values).

        preferredWidth: 1280 //768 Portrait Width
        preferredHeight: 768 //1280 Portrait Height

If you need to support orientation, then you may need to check this https://developer.blackberry.com/cascades/reference/bb__cascades__orientationsupport.html
