Happens to me too, on Windows. Every export the dialog moves a little more left, until I have to move it back to the right. Seems like there should be a preferences option like Corel has: Center Dialog Boxes. But alas.

Hi @Iconix Digital Arts,

Thanks for jumping in and sharing your experience. I tested this on Illustrator 30.1 on my side and wasn't able to see the dialog boxes shifting at all, they stayed in place consistently. Could you please confirm the exact Illustrator version you're currently using? If you're not on 30.1 yet, I'd recommend updating to the latest version and checking if the behavior still occurs.

Please let me know your observations after testing.

I'm current. And this is an ongoing issue for the last several versions.
Specifically, when I Save As PDF, the pdf export settings dialogs creeps left a few mm each time, until I eventually have to drag it back over to the right again.

Other programs keep those boxes centered, or have a preferences setting to keep them centered. It's a small issue, but a real issue.
