ArcGIS Pro 3.1


I'm creating a .LYRX layer file by right-clicking the Contents layer >> Sharing >> Save as Layer File:

When using a computer with two screens, the Save Layer File dialog pops up on a different screen than ArcGIS Pro.

When using big screens, I don't always notice that the window has popped up on a different screen. 

Screen1: ArcGIS Pro
Screen2: Save Layer File dialog

Idea:
Is there anything Esri can do to make dialogs pop up in the same screen as ArcGIS Pro?

@EarlMedina Yes, I agree what one user may want is not what other users may want.

To address this, can a option be provided on the backend setting (ArcGIS Pro Project > Options) that allows the user to enable all ArcGIS Pro windows to always anchor to the window ArcGIS Pro is running on and the other option could be the default (the ones you mentioned). This would allow users to have flexibility.
