i m using this script

\*\*var stageListener:Object = new Object ();  
stageListener.onResize = function ()  
{  
stageSize\_txt.text = “Stage.width:” + Stage.width + " Stage.height:" + Stage.height;

```
// position mc's
tl_mc._x = tl_mc._y = 0;
tr_mc._x = Stage.width - tr_mc._width;
tr_mc._y = 0;
bl_mc._x = 0;
bl_mc._y = Stage.height - bl_mc._height;
br_mc._x = Stage.width - br_mc._width;
br_mc._y = Stage.height - br_mc._height;

```

};  
Stage.scaleMode = “noScale”;  
Stage.align = “TL”;  
Stage.addListener (stageListener);  
// call resize function  
stageListener.onResize();
