Using the Onscreen Keyboard
You can use an onscreen keyboard in a remote desktop or application. To display the onscreen keyboard,
tap the Keyboard icon in the Unity Touch sidebar. To hide the onscreen keyboard, tap the Keyboard icon
again.
The onscreen keyboard includes the PageUp and PageDn navigation keys, function keys, and other keys
that you often use in Windows environments, including Ctrl, Alt, Del, Shift, Win, Caps, Esc, and Del. Use
the Shift key on this keypad when you need to use key combinations that include the Shift key, such as Ctrl
+Shift. To tap a combination of these keys, such as Ctrl+Alt+Del, first tap the onscreen Ctrl key. After the
Ctrl key turns blue, tap the onscreen Alt key. After the Alt key turns blue, tap the Del key.
You can tap the pen icon on the left side of the Ctrl key to display the local input buffer. Text that you type
into this text box is not sent to an application until you tap Send. For example, if you open an application
such as Notepad and tap the pen icon, the text that you type does not appear in the Notepad application
until you tap Send. This feature is useful if you have a poor network connection and characters do not
immediately appear when you type them. With this feature, you can quickly type up to 1,000 characters and
then either tap Send or Return to have all 1,000 characters appear at once in the application.
Screen Resolutions and Using External Displays
You can use Horizon Client with external displays and you can change screen resolutions.
When you connect your Chrome OS device to an external display or projector, you can display
Horizon Client in full-screen mode by pressing the full screen key on your device's keyboard.
Enlarging the Screen Resolution for a Remote Desktop
By default, the display resolution is set so that the entire Windows desktop fits inside your device, and the
desktop icons and task bar icons are a certain size. If you change the default to a higher resolution, the
desktop still fits inside the device, but the desktop and taskbar icons become smaller.
Changing the Display Resolution Setting
To change the resolution setting, tap the Settings (gear) icon in the upper-right corner of the Horizon Client
screen, tap Display, and tap Resolution.
Screen Resolutions for Using Projectors
You can use the Resolution setting to set a larger resolution for projectors.
