Feature description

On Micosoft windows, the AMC windows and dialogs are not always centered on the active screen (the one where the mouse is).

Desired solution

When a window gets created, or a new dialog displayed, it should be centered on the currently active screen.
This must be tested on a multi-monitor setup.

Alternatives considered

Currently they popup where they want. On Linux it works great though.

Additional context

The frontend_tkinter_base_window.py and frontend_tkinter_show.py files already contain a lot of code to implement this. But MS windows refuses to do it.
