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.
Contact your system administrator to nd out where documents created in remote applications are saved in
your environment.
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.
Configure Horizon Client to Support Reversed Mouse Buttons
You can use the Left Handed Mode option if the primary and secondary mouse buons are switched in a
remote desktop.
If you set the mouse properties inside the remote desktop so that the primary mouse buon is the one on the
right side, as many left-handed people do, you must turn on the Left Handed Mode option in
Horizon Client. If you do not turn on this option when mouse buons are reversed, a single tap acts as a
click of the secondary mouse buon. For example, a single tap might display a context menu rather than
selecting something or inserting a cursor.
