We tried with the VBox and an Accordion that is within the VBox. As a note, vertically the Alert is being correctly positioned, which means it is having some effect, as it isn't the same as the Applications middle. So it might have something to do width the horizontal align and that the VBox is horizontally centered. Somehow the Alert is positioned in what would be the center of the VBox if it were horizontally aligned to the left of the Application.
