Use One Monitor in a Multiple-Monitor Setup
If you have multiple monitors but want a remote desktop window to appear on only one monitor, you can
congure the remote desktop window to open on a single monitor. This feature is not supported for remote
applications.
Procedure

2 In the desktop and application selection window, right-click the remote desktop and select .

By default, the remote desktop window opens on the primary monitor. You can drag the remote desktop
window to a non-primary monitor, and the next time you open the remote desktop, the remote desktop
window appears on that same monitor. The window is opened and centered in the monitor and uses the
window size you selected for the display mode, not a size that you might have created by dragging the
window to resize it.
Use Display Scaling
Users that have poor eyesight or high-resolution screens, such as a 4K monitors, generally have scaling
enabled by seing the DPI (Dots Per Inch) on the client machine to greater than 100 percent. With the
Display Scaling feature, remote desktops and applications support the client machine's scaling seing and
appear normal-sized rather than very small.
Horizon Client saves the display scaling seing for each remote desktop separately. For remote applications,
the display scaling seing applies to all remote applications that are available to the currently logged-in
user. The display scaling seing appears, even if the DPI seing is 100 percent on the client machine.
