Ok. I thought scaleX\Y would work.
But when I try to set the scaleX\Y value, I'm getting error:
//systemManager.stage.scaleMode = StageScaleMode.NO_SCALE;
systemManager.stage.scaleX = 1.25;
systemManager.stage.scaleY = 1.25;
Error: Error #2071: The Stage class does not implement this property or
method.

What does runtimeDPIProvider in flex 4 internally do? I couldn't get much
details on it, as you said, I believe it's about scaling ultimately. May be
I can try to replicate that in flex 3 application?
