Quick action menus are also available on the Servers, Recent, and Favorites windows. For example, on
the Servers window, you can Peek at a saved server and tap items in the quick action menu to edit,
remove, or connect to the server. On the Recent window, you can Peek at a remote desktop or
application shortcut and tap items in the quick action menu to remove the shortcut or connect to the
desktop or application. You can also Pop into a saved server or remote desktop or application shortcut to
connect to it.
Enabling Peek for the Horizon Client Tools
By default, the Horizon Client Tools radial menu icon appears in the middle of the window when you are
connected to a remote desktop or application. You tap the radial menu icon to expand the menu and
display icons for each tool, which you tap to select. For pictures of the radial menu icon and tools icons,
see Table 4‑3.
If you enable Peek for the Horizon Client Tools, the Horizon Client Tools radial menu icon does not
appear. To display the icons for each tool, press deeply on any place on the window.
To enable Peek for the Horizon Client Tools, tap Settings at the bottom of the Horizon Client window, tap
Touch, and toggle the Peek for the menu setting to on. If you are connected to a remote desktop or
application, you can access settings by tapping the Settings (gear) icon in the Horizon Client Tools radial
menu.
Using Spotlight Search with Horizon Client
You can use Spotlight search on iOS 9 and later devices to search for and connect to remote desktops
and applications.
When you log in to a server in Horizon Client, the remote desktops and applications on the server are
added to the Spotlight index. Only the remote desktops and applications on the last server to which you
logged in are indexed.
To use Spotlight search to search for a particular remote desktop or application, type its name or a partial
name in the Spotlight search field. For example, to find a remote desktop named Win 2008 RDS Desktop,
you might type Win or RDS.
To use Spotlight search to find your favorite remote desktops and applications, type favorite in the
Spotlight search field. To search for any remote desktop or application, type vmware or horizon in the
Spotlight search field. The search results can contain up to 10 items.
To connect to a remote desktop or application, tap its name in the search results. If you are not currently
connected to the server, the Horizon Client login window appears and you can log in.
Using Split View and Slide Over with Horizon Client
You can use Split View and Slide Over with Horizon Client on any iPad model that supports Split View
and Slide Over and is running iOS 9 or later.
With Split View and Slide Over, you can open Horizon Client and another app at the same time. You can
run Horizon Client as either the primary app or the secondary app.
