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
To change the resolution from a remote desktop or application, tap to expand the Horizon Client Tools
radial menu icon, tap the  (gear) icon, and tap Resolution. You can also change the resolution from
the Horizon Client Seings screen. Tap  at the boom of the Horizon Client screen and tap
Resolution.
N Certain options, including 3/4 Scaling and No Scaling, are not available on iPhone 6 when the device
is in zoomed mode. To display these options, you must exit zoomed mode.
Using External Monitors and Projectors
You can use the Resolution seing to set a larger resolution for external monitors and projectors.
To display the keyboard and an expanded onscreen touchpad on the device while displaying the remote
desktop on the projector or aached monitor, enable the Presentation Mode seing. The expanded
touchpad and keyboard appear when you plug the device into the external monitor. The device detects the
maximum resolution provided by the external display.
You can mirror the entire device display on a projector or aached monitor, including the Unity Touch
sidebar, by turning o the Presentation mode seing. If you are connected to a remote desktop and the
Presentation Mode seing is enabled, you can click Done to switch to mirror mode.
You can use the Keep the screen alive during Presentation seing to keep the display from turning o after
a period of inactivity while in presentation mode.
You can congure these seing from a remote desktop or application by tapping to expand the
Horizon Client Tools radial menu icon and tapping the  (gear) icon. You can also congure these
seing by tapping the  (gear) icon at the boom of the Horizon Client screen.
Hiding Sensitive Information on External Displays
When you use Horizon Client with an external monitor or projector, sensitive information, such as
passwords and passcodes, is automatically hidden to protect user data security.
