With Horizon Agent 7.9 and later, you can drag text, images, and other data formats from the client system to an open application in a remote desktop or a published application. For example, you can drag text from a browser on the client system and drop it into the WordPad application in a remote desktop. Depending on how the drag and drop feature is configured, you might also be able to drag text, images, and other data formats from an open application in a remote desktop or a published application to the client system.
The following data formats are supported.
- HTML Format
- Rich Text Format (RTF)
- CF_BITMAP
- CF_DIB
- CF_UNICODETEXT
- FileGroupDescriptorW
- FileGroupDescriptor
- FileContents
A Horizon administrator can configure drag and drop behavior by configuring group policy settings. With Horizon Agent 7.9 and Dynamic Environment Manager 9.8 and later, a Horizon administrator can also use Smart Policies to configure drag and drop behavior, including disabling the entire drag and drop feature. For more information, see the Configuring Remote Desktop Features in Horizon document.
