Moving Bootstrap modal on page

Question

I have a bootstrap modal on the screen. When the modal is showed, it is positioned on the center of the screen.

<div class="modal fade" id="ua_dialog">
<div class="modal-dialog">
    <div class="modal-content">
        <div class="modal-header">
        <div class="modal-body">
        ....
        </div>
      </div>

I need to move the modal on my screen, because cover some information from my screen. The user should be able to move on the right, on the left...etc. Can I do that? there is some settings that I can use? or with js? what is the best way? Thanks!

Possible duplicate of how to change the default positioning of modal in bootstrap?

“I need to move the modal on my screen, because cover some information from my screen.” - if you have information outside the modal that still needs to be accessible, that might rather suggest that a modal is the wrong thing to use here in the first place ...

It covers a map which needs to be visible. Can I make the modal to be movable? Or I need to position the modal to be for example on the right of the screen?
