Summary:A method including receiving a command to display a modal dialog. The modal dialog is displayed using both first and second scrolling frames. The first scrolling frame permits scrolling when a modal dialog height exceeds a first scrolling frame constraint. The second scrolling frame permits scrolling of a content section when a content section height exceeds a second scrolling frame constraint. The first scrolling frame constraint has a first and second priorities. The second scrolling frame constraint has a third priority. An orientation of the display screen is determined as being either in a portrait orientation or a landscape orientation. Responsive to determining the physical orientation, an applicable priority that is applicable to the first scrolling frame constraint is assigned. The applicable priority is the first priority in the portrait orientation, and is the second priority in the landscape orientation. After assigning the applicable priority, the modal dialog is displayed.
