Hi everyone: I have been having this really weird issue.

Flash is not measuring the height of my stage correctly: it cuts off 100 pixels. I have no idea what is the deal. I tried with brand new documents, and without fail, when I trace Stage.height, I get the wrong value…so it is obviously impossible to center anything without specifying pixel values.

Anyone else had the same problem, and possibly fixed it???

By the way, I am using an Intel iMac, Flash Professional 8 and Flash player 9, if any of this matters.

Thank you all: any help would be appreciated. 😃
