I don't think we should be adjusting the width of the dialog so that
part of the change
should be removed which will simplify the logic.
Of course anyone calling the ServiceUI public API does not have any
insight into the size of the dialog since it is not explicitly returned
so they
could inadvertently position it so that it is partly off the bottom or
right side of the screen.
Perhaps in a multi-monitor environment with two side by side screens
they want
the dialog centred such that it spans the two
Perhaps they want these behaviours but I suspect not so it is probably worth
'fixing up' some of these cases.
So our 'tweaking' of the position should be limited so that it positions
the dialog
such that its moved the minimum amount to that the bottom right is on
(the specified) screen.
If - and only if - that would cause it to be partially off the top-left
- possible only
if the screen is smaller than the dialog, should we adjust the dialog
position in
a way that allows the bottom or right to be off-screen.
I think we are mostly there and it is not important enough to add new API to
ServiceUI at this time to give us hints about how to handle such cases -
although
I have given it some consideration.
There are lot of things we *could* do here
- expose the pageDialog (now commented out)
- provide a way to pass in the owner Dialog or Frame and stop ignoring
it in ServiceDialog.
That would be useful for modality.
- provide those hints I mentioned
I think #1 and #2 on that list might be the most useful to some people but
don't invalidate this fix even if it might need to be revised if we ever
do them ..
