Description
Is there any way to expose the relative or absolute coordinates of a CoreWebView2Frame in WebView2?
I need to position a .Net dialog over an element, which is fine in a top level frame, but not if the element is in a frame.
Not easy to use JS as the frames may not be from the same source, so won't easily be able get the location of the iFrame.

Start with the CoreWebView2Frame API and the positioning scenario described in the issue. Determine how relative or absolute frame coordinates could be exposed for a .NET dialog, including frames from another source. Done means the requested coordinate information is available for positioning over an element in a frame.
