touchpad and keyboard appear when you plug the device into the external monitor. The device detects
the maximum resolution provided by the external display.

after a period of inactivity while in presentation mode.

Horizon Client Tools radial menu icon and tapping the Settings (gear) icon. You can also configure these
setting by tapping the Settings (gear) icon at the bottom of the Horizon Client window.
