use the Horizon Client toolbar to display the General settings list. If you are using full screen mode, tap the
Horizon 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.

elements on a non-Windows device.

The following 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.

zoomed in, or when the onscreen keyboard is displayed, or when you are using the full screen
touchpad.
n
Use the Horizon 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.

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.
