Using Full-Screen Mode
You can display remote desktops and applications in full-screen or windowed mode on a Surface Pro 4 or

Enable the Local Zoom Feature
When you enable the local zoom feature, you can pinch your fingers together or apart on your
touchscreen to zoom in and out in the remote desktop or application.
For Windows 8 and Windows 10 virtual machine desktops, and for Windows Server 2012 R2 and
Windows Server 2016 RDS desktops and applications, you cannot pinch your fingers together and apart
to zoom in and out unless you enable the local zoom feature.

2 Tap the Option button in the floating menu in the remote desktop or application window and tap
Setting.
3 Expand the Advanced section and tap to toggle the Local Zoom option to On.
If the option is set to Off, you cannot use the local zoom feature in the remote desktop or application.
The option is set to On by default.
Saving Documents in a Published Application
With certain published 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 find out where documents created in published applications are
saved in your environment.
