Be careful how you treat people who are trying to help you. The question you asked was answered. It's your own fault if you worded it wrong. You should be happy you got lighthearted sarcasm instead of a scolding for not reading the docs.

Now that you have pointed out that you *have* read the docs, I fail to see why you are asking this question, since you must already know the answer.

Ok very funny. Just to clarify that I had already read the documentation, otherwise I would not even be able to get the window to display on the screen - but thanks for pointing it out. However, I probably worded the question wrong, so I will re-phrase it: If by using [MyWindow center] the window does not actually center itself in the middle of the screen is there a method available so that it will actually be in the center of the screen?

I am open to suggestions and directions to where I can find the information but sarcasm is not funny and not helpful and therefore if you cannot construct a helpful sentence then don't reply.

Only not reading the documentation. :)

center
Sets the receiver's location to the center of the screen.

- (void)center

Discussion
The receiver is placed exactly in the center horizontally and
somewhat above center vertically. [...]

No doubt roughly at the golden ratio, for aesthetic pleasantness: <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golden_ratio>
