Mobile devices work differently than desktops and laptops, resulting in differences ranging from terminology to some unsupported elements in mobile design.
‘Page is Clicked’ or ‘Object is Clicked’ behavior events should be considered as ‘Page is Tapped’ or ‘Object is Tapped.’
A ‘Key is Pressed’ event will also cover swiping text and word prediction keyboards.
Since there is no tabbing on a mobile device, an ‘Object gains focus’ or 'Table row gains focus' behavior event will only be triggered by the ‘Show’ command used to move the focus to that object or if the object or row is tapped.
Since there is no tabbing on a mobile device, an ‘Object loses focus’ or 'Table row loses focus' behavior event will only be triggered by the ‘Show’ command used to move the focus to another object or if another object or row is tapped.
Grouped objects, except for Radio-Button and Check-box groups, are not supported in mobile design. Neither the group nor the objects inside the group can be added to the mobile version.
The Vertical Slider object is not supported in mobile design. It cannot be added to the mobile version.
The Date Calendar object is not supported in mobile design. It cannot be added to the mobile version.
The Ranking object is not supported in mobile design. It cannot be added to the mobile version.
The Vertical Separator is not supported in mobile design. It cannot be added to the mobile version.
The ‘Mouse moves over’ behavior event is not supported for text, bullet text, heading and picture objects.
The ‘Mouse moves away from’ behavior event is not supported for text, bullet text, heading and picture objects.
The 'App receives external call' behavior event is not supported.

Since a Timer object is only visual, it cannot be included when laying out your mobile design. Timer-related behaviors will still be triggered on a mobile version. |
