I’m making a little game in flash, and:

on (keyPress “\<Right\>”) {  
\<animation\>  
}

After you’ve let go of the button I want it to animate back to its original position, but I can’t work out how to ‘on release’ a keyPress so when its not held down it animates back, any help would be appreciated
