Using a Thin Client
How you interact with Windows user interface elements when Horizon Client is installed on a thin client
depends on your thin client model and the external input device you are using with your thin client. For
more information, see “Using Horizon Client on a Thin Client,” on page 15.
Multitasking
You can switch between Horizon Client and other apps without losing a remote desktop or application
connection.
In a WiFi network, by default Horizon Client runs in the background indenitely. In a 3G network,
Horizon Client suspends data transmission when you switch to another app. Data transmission resumes
when you switch back to Horizon Client.
The Horizon Client icon appears in the status bar when the app is running in the background and there is a
connection to a remote desktop. To switch back to Horizon Client, tap the icon in the status bar.

two remote desktops. Formaing information is not copied.

clipboard when you log in to the remote desktop.
n
If you are logged in to a remote desktop, text that you copy to the remote desktop's clipboard is copied
to your Android device's clipboard when you press the Home buon or switch to the background.
