KeyUp

Deprecated

Mouse events have been superseded by UserInputService which should be used in all new work.

Unsafe

For thread safety, this property is not safe to read in an unsynchronized thread.

Event of:

Mouse

Description:

This event is fired when a Key is released, with the passed argument being the key that was released.

Notes

Not all keys generate this event. However, you can get around this with a few of the keys, “/” for example, by using the [[API:Class/Mouse/KeyUp|KeyUp]] event.
Some keys generate the same string as other keys.
It’s possible for the string to be empty (possibly due to “\0” key code).

Parameters

Name	Type	Default	Description
Name key	Type string	Default	Summary

Code Samples

Mouse KeyUp

The below example, assuming that ‘mouse’ was defined, would print the key that was released (e.g. “q”) along with the ascii value for that key (e.g. 113).

				Expand
				
			local function onKeyUp( key )
    print("Key:", key, " Code:", string.byte(key))
end
mouse.KeyUp:Connect(onKeyUp)
