Hi, Ernst. AFAIK, MC centres it to the loc of the defaultStack, providing
that the loc of the defaultStack is within the screenRect + the height of
the menubar.

How about storing the defaultStack, setting the defaultStack to the name of
the stack that is to be modal and then resetting the defaultStack:
on mouseUp
set the loc of stack "modalStack" to 300,300
put the defaultStack into tDefault
set the defaultstack to "modalstack"
modal "modalstack"
set the defaultStack to tDefault
end mouseUp
Alternatively, you could set the loc of the stack in the preOpenStack
handler - I think preOpenStack gets sent when the stack is opened as modal
even if the stack is already open as topLevel (note though that you don't
have to topLevel the stack in the first place to do your adaptations).
on preOpenStack
set the loc of me to 300,300
end preOpenStack
