    <p>My Swing application has to show a modal dialog to the user. Sorry for not posting SSCCE.</p> <p><code>topContainer</code> might be <code>JFrame</code> or <code>JApplet</code>.</p> <pre><code>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); } } </code></pre> <p>I start the dialog like this on network event</p> <pre><code>SwingUtilities.invokeLater(new Runnable() { @Override public void run() { NewGameDialog dialog = new NewGameDialog(); dialog.setVisible(true); } }); </code></pre> <p>The problem is to set optimal location for my dialog.</p> <p>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.</p> <p>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.</p> <p><strong>What is the best solution considering two above mentioned issues?</strong></p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
