Horizon Client includes additional features to help you use remote desktops and published applications on your local client device. Keyboard ShortcutsYou can use keyboard shortcuts for menu commands and common actions. Configure Lock Key SynchronizationYou can configure Horizon Client to synchronize the toggle states of the Num Lock, Scroll Lock, and Caps Lock keys from the client system to a remote desktop by enabling a setting in Horizon Client. This setting is disabled by default. Share Access to Local Folders and Drives with Client Drive RedirectionWith the client drive redirection feature, you can share folders and drives on the local client system with remote desktops and published applications. Open Local Files in Published ApplicationsYou can turn on the ability to open local files in published applications directly from the local file system. Copying and Pasting Text and ImagesBy default, you can copy and paste from the client system to a remote desktop or published application. You can also copy and paste from a remote desktop or published application to the client system, or between two remote desktops or published applications, if a Horizon administrator enables these features. Dragging and DroppingThe drag and drop feature works differently depending on how a Horizon administrator configures the feature. Share Location InformationWhen the Geolocation Redirection feature is enabled for a remote desktop or published application, you can share the client system's location information with the remote desktop or published application. Tips for Using Published ApplicationsPublished applications look and feel like applications that are installed on the local client system. When using published applications, follow these tips. Using the URL Content Redirection FeatureA Horizon administrator can configure URL links that you click inside a remote desktop or published application to open in the default browser on the local client system. The URL link might be to a web page, a phone number, an email address, or another type of link. This feature is called URL Content Redirection. Resizing the Remote Desktop WindowIf you drag a corner of the remote desktop window to resize it, a tooltip shows the screen resolution in the lower-right corner of the window. Sharing Remote Desktop SessionsWith the Session Collaboration feature, you can invite other users to join an existing remote desktop session. A remote desktop session that is shared in this way is called a collaborative session. The user that shares a session with another user is called the session owner, and the user that joins a shared session is called a session collaborator.
