Move a control 'dx' and 'dy' from its current location without knowing its current location: 

Function MoveControl(name,dx,dy[,win])
	string name,win
	variable dx,dy
 
	win=selectstring(paramisdefault(win),win,winname(0,1))
	controlinfo /w=$win $name
	modifycontrol $name pos={v_left+dx,v_top+dy}, win=$win
End

Nice! Since WinName(0,1)

Since WinName(0,1) returns the top Graph window, you might want to use WinName(0,65) so you get the top graph OR panel window.
