In the Corner field, select a number corresponding to a quadrant of the user's screen: 0 = upper left, 1 = upper right, 2 = lower left, 3 = lower right (the default). In the XOffset field, enter a number representing the horizontal distance from the corner you've specified (the default is 44). In the YOffset field, enter a number representing the vertical distance from the corner you've specified (the default is 42).
