International Keyboards
When using non-English keyboards and locales, you must use certain seings in your client system,
browser, and remote desktop. Some languages require you to use an IME (input method editor) on the
remote desktop.
With the correct local seings and input methods installed, you can input characters for the following
languages: English, Japanese, French, German, simplied Chinese, traditional Chinese, Korean, and
Spanish.

Screen Resolution
If the Horizon Administrator congures a remote desktop with the correct amount of video RAM, the Web
client can resize a remote desktop to match the size of the browser window. The default conguration is
36MB of video RAM, which is comfortably more than minimum requirement of 16MB if you are not using
3D applications.
If you use a browser or Chrome device that has a high pixel density resolution, such as a Macbook with
Retina Display or a Google Chromebook Pixel, you can set the remote desktop or application to use that
resolution. Turn on the High Resolution Mode option in the Seings window, which is available from the
sidebar. (This option only appears in the Seings window if you are using a high-resolution display or a
normal display that uses a scale that is greater than 100 percent.)
To use the 3D rendering feature, you must allocate sucient VRAM for each remote desktop.

The software-accelerated graphics feature, available with vSphere 5.0 or later, allows you to use 3D
applications such as Windows Aero themes or Google Earth. This features requires 64MB to 128MB of
VRAM.
n
The shared hardware-accelerated graphics feature (vSGA), available with vSphere 5.1 or later, allows
you to use 3D applications for design, modeling, and multimedia. This feature requires 64MB to 512MB
of VRAM. The default is 96MB.
n
The dedicated hardware-accelerated graphics feature (vDGA), available with vSphere 5.5 or later,
dedicates a single physical GPU (graphical processing unit) on an ESXi host to a single virtual machine.
Use this feature if you require high-end, hardware-accelerated workstation graphics. This feature
requires 64MB to 512MB of VRAM. The default is 96MB.
When 3D rendering is enabled, the maximum number of monitors is 1 and the maximum resolution is 3840
x 2160.
