The window manager is responsible for placing the window on the screen when mapped if it isn't given an exact position. For dialog boxes, make sure you're passing in the parent window when creating the dialog box. Then GTK will set up the correct hints that would make window managers treat the dialog window as a child of its parent. How the window manager decides to treat the placement is configurable in some window managers...
