I'm wanting to print the entire stage in actionscript 3 (flex.) But the PrintJob.addPage() function only takes a sprite argument, and the stage isn't a sprite. I can think of two solutions:<br />
1.) Add a sprite as the root element of everything else - a big deal because I've got a lot of controls and functionality already.<br />
2.) Create a temporary sprite for printing and all all the stage's children to it. Not sure if this would even work...<br />
<br />
Is there a simple way to just print the entire stage? Surely this isn't an unusual scenario?

Print the whole stage in AS3
