Thanks for the suggestion Tom.  Tried that - the pop up moves whenever I 
move my mouse, so I cannot click into the box to move it! Similarly, if 
I move the title bar, this only changes the position of the window, not 
the pop up itself which stays in the same place relative to the rest of 
the window - and unhelpfully - right in the way of the text in the menu 
I am looking at.

I was wondering if there might be a way of positioning these pop ups in 
the preferences, or even turning them off as a last resort.

Anyone know?

Cheers.
AG
