You can also use hot keys and icons in the notification area (system tray) of the local client system to
switch to a different IME. No IME is required to be installed in the server that hosts the published
application.
When this feature is turned on, the local IME is used. If an IME is installed and configured on the server
that hosts the published application, that remote IME is ignored.
By default the feature is disabled. Whenever you change the setting to turn the feature on or off, you must
disconnect from the server and log in again before the change can take effect.
Prerequisites
n
Verify that one or more IMEs are installed in the client system.
n
Verify that the input language on the local client system matches the language used in the IME.
Procedure
1 In the desktop and application selector window of Horizon Client, right-click a published application
and select Settings.
2 In the Remote Applications pane that appears, select Extend the local IME to hosted applications
check box and click OK.
3 Restart the session by using one of the following options:
Option Description
Log off of the server Disconnect from the server and then log in to the server again and connect to the
application again. You can resume your applications, which were disconnected
but not closed, as were any remote desktops.
Reset the applications Right-click a published application icon, select Settings, and click Reset. Using
this option, if you have any remote desktops open, they are not disconnected. All
the published applications are closed, however, and you must start them again.
The setting takes effect only after you restart the session. The setting applies to all remote hosted
applications on the server.
4 Use the local IME as you would with any locally installed applications.
The language designation and an icon for the IME appear in the notification area (system tray) of your
local client system. You can use hot keys to switch to a different language or IME. Key combinations that
perform certain actions, such as CTRL+X for cutting text and Alt+Right Arrow for moving to a different tab,
will still work correctly.
Note On Windows 7 and 8.x systems, you can specify hot keys for IMEs by using the Text Services
and Input Languages dialog box (available by going to Control Panel > Region and Language >
Keyboards and Languages tab > Change Keyboards button > Text Services and Input Languages
> Advanced Key Settings tab).
