Flex Flash Embed Centering Problem

Question

Hello,
I'm developing a Flash site (AS3) that has 5 sub pages (e.g.
loads 5 different SWFs). 3 of those 5 SWFs are Flex apps. When
loaded, the SWFs are to be centered in the screen. This works for
the 2 SWFs created in Flash, but when I resize the window, the Flex
ones jump to the top of the screen, breaking the structure. Not
sure how to fix this.
In the Flash site, I added:
stage.align = StageAlign.TOP_LEFT;
stage.scaleMode = StageScaleMode.NO_SCALE;
var myLoader:Loader = new Loader();
myLoader.load(new URLRequest("NippesKarteApp.swf"));
mcPanelBkg.addChild(myLoader);
function resizeHandlerMain(e:Event):void
mcPanelBkg.x = (mcPanelBkg.stage.stageWidth / 2) -
(mcPanelBkg.width / 2);
mcPanelBkg.y = (mcPanelBkg.stage.stageHeight / 2) -
(mcPanelBkg.height / 2);
stage.addEventListener(Event.RESIZE, resizeHandlerMain);
stage.dispatchEvent(new Event(Event.RESIZE))
What do I need to add to the Flex apps so when loaded into a
fullbrowser Flash site, they remain centered when the browswer
resizes? Any help would be much appreciated!
Regards,
-Stefan
