Bug ID: 164910
Summary: Offset / off-screen dialog window vertical positioning
when using the dialog's "Shrink" and "Expand" toggle
buttons to pick a cells range on a multi-monitors
desktop

Demonstration video - with the Manage Conditional Formatting dialog
## Summary
Please see the attached short demonstration videos, they will make the issue
much clearer than words.
On GNOME on Wayland with the GTK version of LibreOffice, when you are using
multiple screens at different heights, anywhere in Calc where you use the
"Shrink" button next to a field specifying a range of cells, on some screen
resolutions (such as 1600x900) the window will end up off-screen at the bottom.
## Hypothesis
It seems like this is what happens:
1. The "Shrink" button seemingly destroys the dialog and recreates a new one
with just the minimal cells range input field with the "Expand" button
2. Clicking the "Expand" button does NOT destroy that shrunk window to replace
it with a new expanded window; it seems like it instead reuses the shrunk
window to pack the missing widgets back into it, forcing it to expand... but
the window manager may not change its position, as the position was determined
upon window creation.
## Other observations
This happens no matter what the GNOME Tweaks settings for these two settings
are:
- Windows > Attach Modal Dialogs
- Windows > Center New Windows
This only happens when I am in multi-monitors mode, with one monitor arranged
lower than the other (see attached screenshot for the layout's configuration).
If I turn off the laptop's built-in 1920x1080 monitor and only use the external
1600x900 display, the bug does not occur.
I have observed this on GNOME Shell 47.2's Wayland session, regular scaling (no
HiDPI), on Fedora 41, with:
