In fact, centering a window is a very common task for OOo addons.

If you want to see how to implement this functionality in Java,
you may have a look e. g. at my OfficeFMT package
(download the package with source code from
http://officefmt.iqchoice.com and see the file called
DialogAccess.java).

Yes, since URL means "*Unified* resource locator" :)

But, if in doubt, you can get a system path first and then convert
it to URL using the com.sun.star.ucb.FileContentProvider service.
Again, there is an example of using this service in the OfficeFMT
package, the CommonItemsProvider.java file.
