If you hit TAB you'll see that focus is not in your app. Search the archives for partial solutions and full solutions that require javascript.

Once I click some where on my application, afterwards it runs fine. Even I have tried to use : //stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN,keyDownHandler); But I want it should run without any click / other inputs. Thanking in advance. Mor
