Question

This was something I remember I got confused about in the past (Adobe\'s

Answer 1

I found this article http://ajarproductions.com/blog/2009/03/18/flash-stage-width-vs-stagewidth-in-actionscript-3/ which says:

"stage.width will return the width of the content on the stage and ignore any empty pixels around the edges. So if you only have a 100 px wide rectangle on stage, your stage.width will be 100.

stage.stageWidth will give you the size of the stage, more like Stage.width in Actionscript 2. Use stage.stageWidth if you’re trying to position elements relative to the stage.

Same goes for stage.height and stage.stageHeight."
