Hello,

Version information:
Build id: 20231201-2043
Version: 2023-12 (4.30.0)

OS:
Ubuntu 23.10

Outline view (Ctrl+O) is misaligned. It is not in the center of the screen. See screenshot.

Similarly, Ctrl+F (Find and Replace) is also misaligned. While popup triggered by "Ctrl+H" is positioned correctly.

at the same time other popups e.g. Ctrl+N are correctly aligned

If you click on the arrow dropdown menu next to the search box, you should have the option to remember the location. Does that not work after you drag it?

@nlisker thank you for suggestion. Unfortunately this does not work and "Remember Location" does not actually remembers window position. I clicked "down" arrow next to search box, enabled "Remember Location" drag popup to the center of the scree, close it. Next time on "Ctrl+O" window is still misaligned.

This is a clean installation of Ubuntu and Eclipse. And on this fresh clean installation some popups are correctly aligned (Ctrl+H or Ctrl+P, Ctrl+L) but others (like Ctrl+O) are aligned incorrectly. And "Remember Location" does not work for misaligned popups. And I think that moist people don't even know about option to remember location.

There is difference in how popups produced by "Ctrl+O" and for example "Ctrl+H" behave. When I click "Ctrl+H" or "Ctrl+L" the IDE window below popup is grayed out. The popup is in the center of the screen and you cannot actually move it.
However, outline popup triggered by "Ctrl+O" is movable and does not cause IDE window below popup to gray out.

For me, personally, incorrect alignment of "Ctrl+O" popup is much bigger annoyance compared to the possibility of loosing ability to drag this popup. To be honest I never actually move "outline view" popup.
