I have successfully integrated a small flex3 application into Flash CS4 and I can launch a small popup window using createPopup (in Flex). My popup is a simple Panel.

When I use this technique, it has one small side-effect: It steals my FocusManager so that I can no longer use the Tab key in my flash application, even after I've called removePopup.

I suspect there might be a way to return my keyboard focus to Flash, however I'm not sure how. Other key strokes work fine. Only Tab is affected.

You con use the setFocus() method of whatever component you want to give focus.
