What I would do is change the example.js code in 26 like the following
:<br>
<br>
msgCt.alignTo(theElementToAlignTo, 't-t');<br>
<br>
In the menu example, I got it working by replacing theElementToAlignTo
by "toolbar".<br>
In your case, replace it by mappanel.body and you should be done.<br>
<br>
And what about using a StatusBar ? It probably has the same results and
is less intrusive.<br>
<br>
