To adjust how quickly the pointer moves when you use the touchpad, if you are not using full screen mode,
use the Horizon View Client toolbar to display the General settings list. If you are using full screen mode,
tap the Horizon View Client Tools icon and tap the settings icon. Drag the slider in the Touchpad
Sensitivity option. For pictures of the icons, see the table at the beginning of this topic.
Gestures
VMware has created user interaction aids to help you navigate conventional Windows user interface
elements on a non-Windows device.
Clicking
As in other applications, you tap to click a user interface element.
Right-Clicking
The following options are available for right-clicking:
n
Use the Horizon View Client interface tools to display the regular virtual touchpad and use the
touchpad's right-click button.
n
Tap with two fingers at nearly the same time. The right-click occurs where the first finger tapped.
n
With View Client for Android 1.5 and later releases, on some devices, you can use an external mouse,
such as a USB or Bluetooth mouse, to right-click.
Scrolling and Scrollbars
Several options are available for vertical scrolling.
n
On the screen, tap with one or two fingers and then drag to scroll. The text under your fingers moves in
the same direction as your fingers.
IMPORTANT Scrolling with one finger is avalable with Horizon View Client 2.1. Scrolling with one finger
has the following limitations: It does not work if you have zoomed in, or when the onscreen keyboard is
displayed, or when you are using the full screen touchpad.
n
Use the Horizon View Client interface tools to display the touchpad, tap the touchpad with two fingers,
and then drag to scroll.
n
Use the onscreen touchpad to move the mouse pointer and click scroll bars.
Zooming In and Out
As in other applications, pinch your fingers together or apart to zoom.
Window Resizing
If you use the full screen touchpad to resize a window, touch and hold one finger at the corner or side of the
window and drag to resize.
If you use the regular-size virtual touchpad, touch and hold the left-click button while dragging the corner
or side of a window.
Sound, Music, and Video
If sound is turned on for your device, you can play audio in a remote desktop.
