User manual

The clipboard can accommodate a maximum of 1 MB of data for copy and paste operations. If the text and
RTF data together use less than maximum clipboard size, the formaed text is pasted. Often the RTF data
cannot be truncated, so that if the text and formaing use more than the maximum clipboard size amount,
the RTF data is discarded, and plain text is pasted. If you are unable to paste all of the formaed text you
selected in one operation, you might need to copy and paste smaller amounts in each operation.
Saving Documents in a Remote Application
With certain remote applications, such as Microsoft Word or WordPad, you can create and save documents.
Where these documents are saved depends on your company's network environment. For example, your
documents might be saved to a home share mounted on your local computer.
Administrators can use an ADMX template le to set a group policy that species where documents are
saved. This policy is called Set Remote Desktop Services User Home Directory. For more information, see
the Conguring Remote Desktop Features in Horizon 7 document.
Screen Resolutions and Using External Displays
You can use Horizon Client with external displays and you can change screen resolutions.
When you connect your device to an external display or projector, Horizon Client supports certain
maximum display resolutions. You can change the screen resolution used on your device to allow scrolling a
larger screen resolution.
Enlarging the Screen Resolution for a Remote Desktop
By default, the display resolution is set so that the entire Windows desktop ts 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 ts inside the device, but the desktop and taskbar icons become smaller.
You can pinch your ngers apart to zoom in and make the desktop larger than the device screen. You can
then tap and drag to access the edges of the desktop.
Changing the Display Resolution Setting
You can use the Resolution seing to set the display resolution to a larger value. If you are using a remote
desktop or application in full-screen mode, tap the Horizon Client Tools radial menu icon, tap the gear icon,
tap Display, and tap Resolution. If you are not using full-screen mode,  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.
Using External Displays
You can use the Enable External display seing to congure seings for external displays, such as
projectors and aached monitors.
When the Enable External display seing is selected, you can select the Presentation mode, Multi-Monitor
mode, Keep screen on when external display is connected, and Zoom seings. When the Enable External
display seing is not selected, all of the external display seings are disabled.
In Presentation mode, a keyboard and expanded onscreen touchpad appear on the device when you
display a remote desktop on an external display. The expanded touchpad and keyboard appear when you
plug the device into the external display. The device detects the maximum resolution provided by the
external display. The presentation mode feature is supported only if you have an Android 4.2 or later device.
