Description
The Stage object represents the characteristics of the Flash Player’s runtime display area. It
tells us the current dimensions of the movie, notifies us when the movie changes size, and
provides control over global movie settings, such as which options appear in the Player’s
contextual menu (brought up via right-click on Windows or Ctrl-click on Macintosh).
Mostly, the Stage object is used to adjust the visual layout of a movie when the browser or
Standalone Player is resized.
Note that Stage is a predefined object, not a class. Its properties and methods are accessed
directly, as in:
trace(Stage.width); // Displays the width of the movie
