[news.eclipse.platform.swt] Re: Centering a Dialog on Screen

[Daniel Spiewak <djspiewak@xxxxxxxxx>]

Try this instead:

[code]
int width = display.getClientArea().width;
int height = display.getClientArea().height;
shell.setLocation((width - shell.getSize().x) / 2, (height - shell.getSize().y) / 2);
[/code]

I've removed the compensation for platform specific left/top insets.  Not sure why it didn't work properly for you.  The above code should though.
