If you have two or more monitors, you can select the monitors on which to display a remote desktop window. For example, if you have two monitors, you can specify that the remote desktop window appears on only one of those monitors.
Depending on how a Horizon administrator has configured the remote desktop, you might be able to select between four and six adjacent monitors.
Prerequisites
You must have two or more monitors.
Procedure
- Start Horizon Client and connect to a server.
- Open the Settings dialog box for the remote desktop.
- Click the Settings (gear) icon in the upper-right corner of the desktop and application selection window and select the remote desktop in the left pane.
- Right-click the remote desktop in the desktop and application selection window and select Settings.
- Select PCoIP or VMware Blast from the Connect Via drop-down menu.
The
Connect Via drop-down menu appears only if a Horizon administrator has enabled it.
- From the Display drop-down menu, select Fullscreen - All Monitors.
Thumbnails of the monitors that are currently connected to the client system appear under Display settings. The display topology matches the display settings on the client system.
- To select or deselect a monitor on which to display the remote desktop window, click a thumbnail.
When you select a monitor, its thumbnail changes color. If you violate a display selection rule, a warning message appears.
- To save your changes, click Apply.
- Connect to the remote desktop.
Your changes are applied immediately when you connect to the remote desktop.
Horizon Client saves display settings in a preferences file for the remote desktop after you exit from
Horizon Client.
