Android Emulator, cover screen with palm to dim

Question

I am trying to start the android emulator from eclipse. I chose the Nexus7 as my device. Everything seems to loads fine. The phone then goes through the steps as if it were an new installation and asks me to cover the screen with my palm to dim the screen. How do I simulate covering the screen with my palm since I can not get past this step?

I just downloaded eclipse with android bundle so I have the most recent version of everything.

Can you check your target in AVD.

May be you select your target as Android 4.4W.

W means wearable.

Try to change that target to 4.4.2 or any other target.
