Description ngx472 2012-10-28 09:53:27 UTC
This is not major but I think that popups should be pop up in the same display as the parent display, whether modal or not. It may be a JDK problem, it may be due to the fact that parent is null if non modal? Anyways, behavior is still undesired IMO...
Thanks

I think that options window remembers its last bounds when being reopened. Maybe it should remember the size only and always open center on the main window...
