Steps to reproduce: 1. Run seamonkey, choosing to create new profile Actual results- Win and Mac: Splash screen comes up centered followed by Profile Manager or Profile Selector off center and down to the right. Choosing Create Profile opens that wizard further down and more to the right- partially off screen. Linux splash screen is centered and Profile Manager and subsequent windows are centered also. On Windows you can see the next/finish buttons to create a profile but on Mac you must move the window onto the desktop before being able to create a profile

Since the Select Profile window and the Profile Manager are currently using the same window (ahem), isn't this really a duplicate of bug 23463?
this bug is dependant on pink's reworking of the 'screen' object and other modifications to <window>... currently, on a single monitor system, screen returns the correct dimensions for the screen, however on multiple monitor systems it returns the dimensions of the combined width, which causes multimonitor systems to have the PM split between two. on single monitor systems, the PM is still positioned improperly as the js that centers the window is based off an onload handler which as part of its calculations measures the width of the dialog. as this function fires before the window has been flowed, the window has no idea how wide the dialog is and returns 0 for its width/height dims. hence the PM appearing half way across/down.
dependent on window centering code stuff. will find out more and let this bug know.
