You can use the same methods as any Tkinter.Toplevel. For example:

    import Pmw 
    d = Pmw.Dialog(buttons = ('Yes', 'No', 'Dunno'))
    d.geometry('+400+400')

will position the dialog window 400 pixels down and across from the
top left corner of the screen.

If you want to display the dialog modally (ie:  disallow any user
inputs except to the dialog), use the activate method with the
geometry option.  For example,

    d.activate(geometry = '+400+400')

See the Pmw.MegaToplevel manual page for the full story.
