Flex: center Window?

I am trying to center a launched window in flex, there is a NativeWindow.x and NativeWindow.y but flex uses the Window class which does not have these properties, so does anyone know how to center a window? Thanks!!

This is what I use

nativeWindow.x = (Capabilities.screenResolutionX - nativeWindow.width) / 2; nativeWindow.y = (Capabilities.screenResolutionY - nativeWindow.height) / 2;

Seems to work well

actually this works better in flex 4.5 and above

nativeWindow.x = (Screen.mainScreen.bounds.width - nativeWindow.width)/2;
nativeWindow.y = (Screen.mainScreen.bounds.height - nativeWindow.height)/2;

isn't this better?

example docs:

// center the window on the screen
var screenBounds:Rectangle = Screen.mainScreen.bounds;
nativeWindow.x = (screenBounds.width - nativeWindow.width) / 2;
nativeWindow.y = (screenBounds.height - nativeWindow.height) / 2;

from livedocs: about window containers ¨

both solutions worked for me even on multiple screen system (Win7)

I figured it out:

window.nativeWindow.x = (Screen.mainScreen.bounds.width - window.width)/2;
window.nativeWindow.y = (Screen.mainScreen.bounds.height - window.height)/2;

I think you have to call this AFTER window.open() though.
