Change background and Stage size in Flash

The Stage provides a preview of how your Flash content will appear in your published file. You might change the size of the Stage to accommodate artwork designed for a larger Stage. The steps below show how to change the size and the background color of the Stage.

  1. In the Tools panel, click the Selection tool.
  2. On the Stage, click anywhere in the gray workspace that surrounds the Stage, or on the background area of the Stage, so that no objects are selected.

    The Property inspector, under the Stage, displays properties for the document when no objects are selected.
  3. To change the Stage background color, click the Background color box and select a light shade of gray, such as gray with the hexadecimal value of #CCCCCC.
  4. To change the Stage size, click Size in the Property inspector. In the Document Properties dialog box, enter 750 for the Stage width, and then click OK.

The Stage resizes to 750 pixels wide.
