I read the Text.__init__ handler, the position relates to where the text will
be in relation with xy coordinates. I'm looking for the xy coordinates to be on
the top left of the control:

_____________________________________ i would say i am looking for
something like : GetTopLeftCoordinates().....
Thanks,
Roy
