   Subject: repositioning step window
   
   
   Hello,
   
   is it possible to specify coordinates for the step window
   so that it doesn't show up with top:left = 0:0? It happens I'm drawing
   something right at that location that I'd like to step.
   
   
   Thanks,

Something like this should work (warning, untested code follows):

(defvar *ccl-step-window* ccl::*step-fred-window*)
(setq ccl::*step-fred-window* (kindof *ccl-step-window*))

(defvar *step-window-position* (make-point -X- -Y-))   ; fill in -X- & -Y-

(defobfun (exist ccl::*step-fred-window*) (args)
  (usual-exist args)
  (let ((dialog (objvar ccl::my-step-dialog)))
    (ask dialog (set-window-position *step-window-position*))
    (set-window-position (add-points *step-window-position* #@(6 6)))))
