Input Devices, Keyboards, and Keyboard Settings
Horizon Client for Android supports Bluetooth and docked keyboard devices and keyboards. You can also
set preferences for settings such as auto-capitalization and text correction.
External Keyboards and Input Devices
For information about the devices that your specific tablet supports, see the documentation from the tablet
manufacturer.
External keyboards are sometimes automatically detected by Horizon Client. For some external keyboards,
you must either tap the tablet screen with three fingers at the same time, or you must tap the Keyboard icon.
If you are using a remote desktop or application in full-screen mode, the Keyboard icon is in the
Horizon Client Tools radial menu. If you are not using full-screen mode, the Keyboard icon is on the
Horizon Client toolbar.
NOTE On Kindle Fire tablets, tapping with three fingers does not display the onscreen keyboard. You can
instead use the Keyboard icon to display the onscreen keyboard.
After the external keyboard is detected, you might not be able to use the Horizon Client Tools or three-
finger tap to display the onscreen keyboard. You might first have to deactivate the external keyboard by
pressing its Eject key.
International Onscreen Keyboards
With the correct input methods installed, you can input characters for the following languages: English-
United States, Japanese, French, German, Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, and Korean.
To choose a language for the keyboard or voice, tap the Keyboard Settings key on the onscreen keyboard.
The Keyboard Settings key is the left-most key on the bottom row of the onscreen keyboard. When you
finish selecting settings, tap the Android Back button to dismiss the dialog box.
Enable the Japanese 106/109 Keyboard Layout
If you are connected to a Windows XP desktop, you can configure Horizon Client to use the Japanese
106/109 keyboard layout.
Prerequisites
Use Horizon Client to connect to a Windows XP desktop that has the Japanese keyboard layout enabled.
Procedure
1 Open Settings and tap Keyboard.
If you are using the remote desktop in full-screen mode, tap the Horizon Client Tools radial menu icon
and tap the gear icon. If you are not using full-screen mode, Settings is in the menu in the upper-right
corner of the Horizon Client toolbar. If you are not connected to a remote desktop or application, tap
the gear icon in the upper right corner of the Horizon Client screen.
2 Tap Use Japanese 106/109 Keyboard Layout to select the check box.
This setting is disabled if the keyboard layout on the Windows XP desktop is not set to Japanese or if
the desktop is not running Windows XP.
