Window setModal(true/false) implies center = true?!?

Vaadin 6 / 7 / 8 Framework UI

Hi,

if you set a new window to be modal (window.setModal(true)), the window will automatically get centered. even if you set modal to false the window will get centered too. there is no way to set the position of the window afterwards. so a modal window can not be positioned… does a workaround exist other than extending the window class and overwrite a lot of code? maybe in a future release this behaviour could be changed or at least improved.

I did a quick’n’dirty fix like Mauno suggested. It’ll be in the next nightly build.
