find and replace dialog box locaton

[Anonymous]

Hi, I have AutoCAD LT 2019. Every time when I use find and replace command, the dialog box appear in the middle of the screen. Even though I drag the dialog box to the side of the screen, next time when I use find and replace , the dialog box appear again in the middle of the screen. The problem I am facing is that the dialog box appear in front of the "found" text. Therefore, I cannot see the text behind it without closing the dialog box or moving it away. I have to do 1000+ finds to do. Therefore this consume time. 

Could anyone help me by letting me know how to make AutoCAD LT find dialog box appear aside of the "found" text?

Thank you.

Get a second monitor screen and move everything else to it instead is another option.

Re: find and replace dialog box location

Hi ,
Thank you for your comments. I think I found the solution.
I have two monitors. One is my main monitor (desktop) and the other is the secondary (supplementary) monitor. If I use my main monitor for AutoCAD, the find and replace dialog box behave in the way I want. It won't cover the text which I search for. But if I use the other monitor, it covers the text which I searched. 
Though this seems strange, this is how it behaves. This may be a bug in AutoCAD.
