Window Resizing
If you use the full screen touchpad to resize a window, touch and hold one finger at the corner or side of the
window and drag to resize, or double-tap with one finger and then drag.
If you use the regular-size virtual touchpad, to simulate holding down the left-click button while dragging
the corner or side of a window, double-tap with one finger and then drag.
If you are not using either type of virtual touchpad, tap and hold until the magnifying glass appears at the
corner or side of the window. Move your finger around until the resizing arrows appear. Lift your finger off
the screen. The magnifying glass is replaced by a resizing circle. Tap this resizing circle and drag it to resize
the window.
Sound, Music, and Video
If sound is turned on for your device, you can play audio in a remote desktop.
Multitasking
You can switch between Horizon Client and other apps without losing a remote desktop or application
connection.
In a WiFi network, by default Horizon Client runs in the background for up to three minutes on iOS 7.0 and
later devices. In a 3G network, Horizon Client suspends data transmission when you switch to another app.
Data transmission resumes when you switch back to Horizon Client.
You can copy and paste plain text between an iOS app and a remote desktop or between two remote
desktops. Formatting information is not copied.
n
Text that you copy to the clipboard is automatically copied to your remote desktop's clipboard when
you log in to the remote desktop.
n
If you are logged in to a remote desktop, text that you copy to the remote desktop's clipboard is copied
to your iOS device's clipboard when you press the Home button or switch to the background.
By default, you can copy and paste plain text between an iOS device application and a remote application.
The clipboard can accommodate 1MB of data for copy and paste operations. To enable users to copy plain
text between a remote application and an iOS device application, you must modify the PCoIP session group
policy setting called Configure clipboard redirection on the RDS host that hosts the remote application
pool. For information about configuring this group policy setting, see the Setting Up Desktop and Application
Pools in View document.
Saving Documents in a Remote Application
With certain remote 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.
Administrators can use an ADMX template file to set a group policy that specifies where documents are
saved. This policy is called "Set Remote Desktop Services User Home Directory." For more information, see
the "RDS Profiles Settings" topic in the Setting Up Desktop and Application Pools in View document.
