Notes
- This verb is similar to dragMouse(...), but provides separate x and y parameters that some may find easier to type (and to read!). It does not support screen coordinates.
- By default, coordinates are relative to the frontmost dialog or window. Changing to a different screen size or having the window come up in a different location should have no effect.
- In most applications, the location is relative to the inside of the window. Negative y values reach into the title bar (if any).
- The holding label may be left off, though the result may be less readable.
