Installation and Setup Guide

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.
A Horizon administrator can use the RDS Proles group policy seing called Set Remote Desktop Services
User Home Directory to specify where documents are saved. For more information, see the Conguring
Remote Desktop Features in Horizon 7 document.
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 for up to three minutes on iOS 7.0 and
later devices. 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.
Suppress the Cellular Data Warning Message
When Horizon Client detects that you are using a cellular data connection, the Network Usage dialog box
appears to notify you that your remote desktop or application connection might use a substantial portion of
your data plan.
The Network Usage dialog box appears after you connect to a server and try to launch a remote desktop or
application, after you tap a recent desktop or application shortcut, and after you connect to a remote
application and try to launch another application or remote desktop from the Unity Touch sidebar. The
Network Usage dialog box appears only when you launch Horizon Client.
You can suppress the Network Usage dialog box after it appears. You can also set an option to always
suppress the Network Usage dialog box.
Procedure

Horizon Client window and toggle the Cellular Data Warning option to o.
PCoIP Client-Side Image Cache
PCoIP client-side image caching stores image content on the client to avoid retransmission. This feature
reduces bandwidth usage.
The PCoIP image cache captures spatial, as well as temporal, redundancy. For example, when you scroll
down through a PDF document, new content appears from the boom of the window and the oldest content
disappears from the top of the window. All the other content remains constant and moves upward. The
PCoIP image cache is capable of detecting this spatial and temporal redundancy.
