, stageRight
, and stageTop
, indicates where the Stage is positioned on the desktop. It returns the bottom vertical coordinate of the Stage relative to the upper left corner of the main screen. The height of the Stage in pixels is determined by the stageBottom - the stageTop

stageHeight = the stageBottom - the stageTop sprite(3).locV = stageHeight - 50
