How to set the location of “JOptionPane.showMessageDialog”

Question

I want to make JOptionPane.showMessageDialog message appear

• Any place in the screen.
• Relative to JFrame. (not at the centre of the JFrame)

For example this will display the message at the centre of the JFrame provided as argument thisFrame

 JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(thisFrame, "Your message.");

And this will display the message at the centre of the screen irrelative to any JFrame.

JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "Your message.");

• what I want is to set the location of the message any place I want

• what I want is to set the location of the message relative to the JFrame (not at the centre of the JFrame)

How?
