问题
My Swing application has to show a modal dialog to the user. Sorry for not posting SSCCE.
topContainer might be JFrame or JApplet.
private class NewGameDialog extends JDialog {
public NewGameDialog () {
super(SwingUtilities.windowForComponent(topContainer), "NEW GAME", ModalityType.APPLICATION_MODAL);
//add components here
getContentPane().setLayout(new BoxLayout(getContentPane(), BoxLayout.Y_AXIS));
//TODO:
setSize(new Dimension(250, 200));
setLocation(650, 300);
}
}
I start the dialog like this on network event
SwingUtilities.invokeLater(new Runnable() {
@Override
public void run() {
NewGameDialog dialog = new NewGameDialog();
dialog.setVisible(true);
}
});
The problem is to set optimal location for my dialog.
1) If it is set as absolute value, and I move the app frame to the second screen, then dialog is shown on the first screen which is weird.
2) If it is set a relative value to JFrame, it might appear that user moved the app frame outside of the screen and the dialog being relatively located would not be visible to the user. And because it is modal, the game would be stuck.
What is the best solution considering two above mentioned issues?

This reminded me of a very favourite post of mine, using Window.setLocationByPlatform(true), on StackOverflow.
How to best position Swing GUIs
EDIT 1 :
You can add a FocusListener to your JDialog and on focusGained(...) method, you can use setLocationRelativeTo(null) for both the JFrame and the JDialog, so that they both come to the center of the screen no matter where they are before.

EDIT 2 :
I searched a bit here and there, and it turns out, in my opinion, that actually on which Monitor Screen your application comes at the first instance, will determine it's GraphicsConfiguration. Though as I roamed through the API, there is only a getter method for the said GraphicsConfiguration thingy and no setter methods for the same (Still You can specify one through the constructor of any top level Window i.e. JFrame(...)/JDialog(...)).
Now you can occupy your head with this code, which can be used to determine the appropriate location, that you want to set, again, you might have to use focusGain() method in my opinion, to satisfy condition 2 of your question. Have a look at the code attached, though no need to create a new JFrame/JDialog, just watch how to get coordinates for the screen (that you can add in the focusGain() method to determine the location of the whole Application.)
GraphicsEnvironment ge = GraphicsEnvironment.
getLocalGraphicsEnvironment();
GraphicsDevice[] gs = ge.getScreenDevices();
for (int j = 0; j < gs.length; j++) {
GraphicsDevice gd = gs[j];
GraphicsConfiguration[] gc =
gd.getConfigurations();
for (int i=0; i < gc.length; i++) {
JFrame f = new
JFrame(gs[j].getDefaultConfiguration());
Canvas c = new Canvas(gc[i]);
Rectangle gcBounds = gc[i].getBounds();
int xoffs = gcBounds.x;
int yoffs = gcBounds.y;
f.getContentPane().add(c);
f.setLocation((i*50)+xoffs, (i*60)+yoffs);
f.show();
}
}
EDIT 3 :
Try to change this :
int x = loc.getX() + (mainWindow.getWidth() - getWidth()) / 2;
int y = loc.getY() + (mainWindow.getHeight() - getHeight()) / 2;
setLocation(x, y);
to just :
setLocationRelativeTo(mainWindow);
To test the above thingy, I used my FrameFocus Class as is, though I had added your changes to my CustomDialog method, as shown in this modified CustomDialog Class.
class CustomDialog extends JDialog
{
private JFrame mainWindow;
public CustomDialog(JFrame owner, String title, boolean modal)
{
super(owner, title, modal);
mainWindow = owner;
JPanel contentPane = new JPanel();
JLabel dialogLabel = new JLabel(
"I am a Label on JDialog.", JLabel.CENTER);
contentPane.add(dialogLabel);
setContentPane(contentPane);
pack();
addFocusListener(new FocusListener() {
@Override
public void focusGained(FocusEvent e) {
//mainWindow.setLocationRelativeTo(null);
//setLocationRelativeTo(null);
GraphicsEnvironment ge = GraphicsEnvironment.getLocalGraphicsEnvironment();
GraphicsDevice[] gs = ge.getScreenDevices();
for (int j = 0; j < gs.length; j++) {
GraphicsDevice gd = gs[j];
GraphicsConfiguration[] gc = gd.getConfigurations();
for (int i=0; i < gc.length; i++) {
Rectangle gcBounds = gc[i].getBounds();
Point loc = mainWindow.getLocationOnScreen();
if (gcBounds.contains(loc)) {
System.out.println("at " + j + " screen");
int x = gcBounds.x + (gcBounds.width - mainWindow.getWidth()) / 2;
int y = gcBounds.y + (gcBounds.height - mainWindow.getHeight()) / 2;
mainWindow.setLocation(x, y);
//x = (int) (loc.getX() + (mainWindow.getWidth() - CustomDialog.this.getWidth()) / 2);
//y = (int) (loc.getY() + (mainWindow.getHeight() - CustomDialog.this.getHeight()) / 2);
//CustomDialog.this.setLocation(x, y);
CustomDialog.this.setLocationRelativeTo(mainWindow);
break;
}
}
}
}
@Override
public void focusLost(FocusEvent e) {
/*
* Nothing written for this part yet
*/
}
});
}
}

I think, best would be to center the dialog in the middle of the current screen as described here.
Toolkit toolkit = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit();
Dimension screenSize = toolkit.getScreenSize();
int x = (screenSize.width - d.getWidth()) / 2;
int y = (screenSize.height - d.getHeight()) / 2;
d.setLocation(x, y);
This always works and how it can be invisible to the user if it is right in the center of the screen? And setLocationRelativeTo can also be used but you need to invoke it at the right time.

use JDialog.setLocation() for moving JDialog on desired Point on the screen

With the help of all 3 answerers I have come up with code which seems exactly what I need. First, JFrame got placed in the middle of current screen and then JDialog accordingly.
GraphicsEnvironment ge = GraphicsEnvironment.getLocalGraphicsEnvironment();
GraphicsDevice[] gs = ge.getScreenDevices();
for (int j = 0; j < gs.length; j++) {
GraphicsDevice gd = gs[j];
GraphicsConfiguration[] gc = gd.getConfigurations();
for (int i=0; i < gc.length; i++) {
Rectangle gcBounds = gc[i].getBounds();
Point loc = mainWindow.getLocationOnScreen();
if (gcBounds.contains(loc)) {
System.out.println("at " + j + " screen");
int x = gcBounds.x + (gcBounds.width - mainWindow.getWidth()) / 2;
int y = gcBounds.y + (gcBounds.height - mainWindow.getHeight()) / 2;
mainWindow.setLocation(x, y);
int x = loc.getX() + (mainWindow.getWidth() - getWidth()) / 2;
int y = loc.getY() + (mainWindow.getHeight() - getHeight()) / 2;
setLocation(x, y);
break;
}
}
}
