1) I know for the other way, i.e. setting interactionMode="mouse" on mobile apps.
For the spark:List component running on mobile: - interactionMode="touch" enables swiping, but D&D is disabled. - interactionMode="mouse" enables D&D, but swiping is disabled. So I had to set interactionMode="mouse" on a mobile List to enabled D&D, and it works pretty much well. So I guess that setting one or the other does not break anything, it just changes the way you interact with your components. 2) Searching for InteractionMode in the SDK source , you will find that setting InteractionMode="touch" will disable some functionalities : - Tooltips are disabled - Hovering is disabled. - Drag & Drop is disabled Etc... 3) Also, some computers (eg. recent MacBooks) have a multi-touch enabled mousepad, so setting interactionMode="touch" would even allow you to do some multi-touch gestures on desktop.

Or, will everything work the same as if I have set interactionMode="mouse"? Thanks! -- Sebastian (PPMC) Interaction Designer Looking for a Login Example with Apache Flex?
