Which skin are you using? I can move this to the appropriate skin support forum for you.

I'm using Helix and my version of DialogKaiToast.xml starts with:
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<window>
    <animation effect="fade" start="0" end="100" time="200">WindowOpen</animation>
    <animation effect="fade" start="100" end="0" time="200">WindowClose</animation>
    <coordinates>
        <left>860</left>
        <top>640</top>
    </coordinates>

It's not 646, but guess which number I would try changing?

Also, if you want your change to survive a skin update, you should copy the skin to /userdata/addons, modify the addon folder name, and name/id in the addon.xml.

Really? It's right in front of you. Sigh. Change 640 to something lower, say 64. Reboot. Test. Change it higher or lower to your liking. Reboot. Rinse. Repeat.
