to further probe nutrox's knowledge: is there a simple way to call a function *after* the user has finished resizing the browser window? i.e. instead of calling it repeatedly while the window is being dragged...

thanks - this thread has been invaluable.

The only way I can think of doing that at the moment is like this...

stop();
 
Stage.scaleMode = "noscale";
Stage.align = "tl";
Stage.addListener({onResize:startReposition});
 
function startReposition() {
    clearInterval(_root.repos_int);
  _root.repos_int = setInterval(_root, "reposition", 250);
};
 
function reposition() {
        var mc = _root.mainContent_mc;
        var newX = Math.floor((Stage.width - mc._width) / 2);
        var newY = Math.floor((Stage.height - mc._height) / 2);
        mc._x = newX;
        mc._y = newY;
    clearInterval(_root.repos_int);
};
 
reposition(); 

What that does is start a "timeout" when the browser window is resized, and will reposition everything if the browser size doesn't change for 1/4 of a second (250ms). That should prevent anything being repositioned until the user has stopped resizing the browser.

Hope that helps.

On a side note: If the size of your main content ever changes then you can simply call _root.reposition(); to force everything to the center of the screen.
