getAction() gives only ACTION_DOWN.
For an application I am writing, I want to invoke a certain action once the user lifted his finger off the screen. I understood I need to check if event.getAction() is ACTION_UP, but all I get from getAction() is ACTION_DOWN. My code looks like this:

    menu = new MenuView(this);
            menu.setBackgroundColor(Color.WHITE);
            menu.setKeepScreenOn(true);
    ...
    setContentView(menu);
     menu.requestFocus();
    ...
    public class MenuView extends View
    {
    ...
    public MenuView(Context context) 
        {
            super(context);
            setFocusable(true);
        }

Anybody knows what is the reason for the problem?

Thank you in advance.
