Using a Remote Desktop or Application

<

Horizon Client includes features that are common to other Windows 10 UWP apps, as well as features that are specific to remote desktops and applications.

Feature Support Matrix

Some features are supported on one type of client but not on another. For example, USB access is supported with Horizon Client for Windows but not with Horizon Client for Windows 10 UWP.
Using Full-Screen Mode

You can display remote desktops and applications in full-screen or windowed mode on a Surface Pro 4 or Surface Book. Full-screen mode is enabled by default.
Using DPI Synchronization

The DPI Synchronization feature ensures that the DPI setting in a remote session matches the client machine's DPI setting. When you start a new remote session, Horizon Agent sets the DPI value in the session to match the DPI value of the client machine. The DPI Synchronization feature cannot change the DPI setting for active remote sessions.
Adjusting the Screen Resolution for Remote Desktops and Applications

You can disable the DPI Synchronization feature and manually adjust the screen resolution for remote desktops and applications.
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.
Prevent Screen Lock

After a certain amount of idle time, the Windows 10 device might dim the display, activate the lock screen, or power down the display to conserve power. You can set an option to prevent screen lock for a remote desktop or application.
Using the Sidebar

After you connect to a remote desktop or application, you can use the sidebar to open other desktops and applications.
Gestures and Navigation Aids

VMware has created user interaction aids to help you navigate conventional Windows user interface elements.
Multitasking

You can switch between Horizon Client and other apps without losing a remote desktop or application connection.
Using Horizon Client with a Microsoft Display Dock

The VMware Horizon Client app works with Continuum for Windows 10 Mobile. You can use a Microsoft Display Dock to connect your Windows 10 smartphone to an external display and mouse. With this feature, you can use Horizon Client just as you would use it on a desktop PC.
Copying and Pasting Text and Images

By default, you can copy and paste text from the local client system to a remote desktop or application. If a Horizon administrator enables the feature, you can also copy and paste text from a remote desktop or application to the client system or between two remote desktops or applications.
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.
Internationalization

Both the user interface and the documentation are available in English, Japanese, French, German, Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, Korean, and Spanish. You can also input characters for these languages.
