This fixes some of the issues mentioned in #4190, namely that swing dialogs are hidden behind the main window. They are still not modal and not centered at the screen since for this a Swing frame is needed as the owner or parent...but I couldn't find a way to convert our JavaFX main window to a Swing frame or window.


  • Change in CHANGELOG.md described
  • Tests created for changes
  • Manually tested changed features in running JabRef
  • Screenshots added in PR description (for bigger UI changes)
  • Ensured that the git commit message is a good one
  • Check documentation status (Issue created for outdated help page at help.jabref.org?)

Add a FIXME otherwise this will be there forever, I guess.
