Just playing around with FP, I was wondering about what people do when they play their project with FlashDevelop and the Flashplayer window is larger than the game window and it does this.
I can simply change the window size for Flashplayer but do I really need to do that every time I run my game?
Thanks for any tips in advanced!

(Note: I don’t use FlashDevelop, but I’m pretty sure this is your problem!)
In your Main class (or whatever equivalent you have - basically the first thing that’s loaded), you need to insert the following above the class declaration itself:
[SWF(width="400", height="400", backgroundColor="#000000"]
Obviously, replace the 400's with whatever width/height you want, and you can change the background color as well.
If you’re using FlashDevelop, you can set these properties in your project if it’s easier for you.
You’ll want to go to Project → Properties… and change the Dimensions.
@JonathanStoler’s method will also work (and is 100% cross-platform).
Bear in mind that if your game is 200x200 but you’ve set FP.screen.scale = 2, you’ll need to set your height and width to 400x400.
