Description:
When opening the document properties dialog on a multi screen setup, the dialog appears in the middle of the desktop. In my case, it means both halves of the dialog are on different screens.

How to repeat:
- Use a multi monitor setup.
- Open/Create new EER diagram.
- Click File, Document properties.

Suggested fix:
Dialog should appear in the middle of the main form, rather than the middle of the desktop.

Note: This only seem to happen when I have workbench on my right (secondary) monitor.

Thank you for the bug report. On my side that happens when I locate Workbench on the secondary display, same behavior I noticed in several applications however Internet Explorer behaves correctly independently of the display (main or secondary).
