Use Multiple Monitors
By using a Chrome browser (version 55 or later), you can use multiple monitors in HTML Access Web client
to display a remote desktop window.
You can add up to one additional monitor to your primary monitor to display the current remote desktop
window to which you are connected. For example, if you have three monitors, you can specify that the
remote desktop window appears on only two of those monitors. Adjacent monitors must be selected for the
multiple-monitor setup. The monitors can be positioned side by side or stacked vertically.
Beginning with HTML Access Web client 4. 5, the per device DPI synchronization is applied when the
multiple-monitor feature is enabled. If you are using two monitors that have dierent DPI seings, the DPI
seings on the HTML Access agent are set to the same DPI seing value used by the monitor of the client
machine that was used to start the HTML Access Web client session.
Procedure
1 Start Horizon Client and log in to a server.
2 In the desktop and application selection window, click the icon for the remote desktop that you want to
access.
