All above are applicable to any applications and all frames/dialogs on the new macOS. For some reason, Apple decided this can be a good design. Why we do not try to fit in it? - We may try to configure the correct size when a few windows are merged to the same window - We may try to fix a "hang" of some type of the windows - And we may try to disable it for some type of the windows by creating "fake" owner. ------------- PR: https://git.openjdk.java.net/jdk/pull/3407
