Enable Session Collaboration
Session Collaboration redirection feature enables you to invite other users to join your remote desktop session. The session
collaboration feature is applicable only for Blast sessions.
NOTE: You cannot accept the invitation and join the remote desktop session of other users. This is a limitation on ThinOS

the following:
1. Launch a Horizon View desktop on ThinOS.
2. Click the VMware Session Collaboration icon from the Windows system tray.
3. Enter the username or email address and click Send.
Enable Battery State Redirection
Battery State Redirection feature enables you to redirect the battery information of the ThinOS device to a remote desktop.
To use the Battery State Redirection feature, you must ensure that the Enable Battery State Redirection Agent Policy
Setting is enabled in Group Policy Management Editor. By default, this feature is enabled. The battery state redirection feature
is applicable only for Blast sessions.

movement and improve the mouse performance. The relative mouse feature is applicable for both PCoIP and Blast-enabled thin
clients.
NOTE: The touch screen may not work when the relative mouse feature is enabled. This is a VMware limitation.
