Dragging Shortcuts and URIs

You can drag server, remote desktop, and published application shortcuts and Uniform Resource Identifiers (URIs).

This feature requires an iPad that is running iOS 11 or later.

You can drag a server shortcut from the Horizon Client Servers window into another app, such as Notes. The server shortcut appears as a URI in the other app, for example, vmware-view://server-address. You can drag a server address or URI from another app into the Servers window. You can also use this feature to reorder the server shortcuts on the Servers window.

After you connect to a server, you can drag a remote desktop or published application shortcut from the Horizon Client desktop and application selection window or the Favorites window into another app, such as Notes. The shortcut appears as a URI in the other app, for example, vmware-view://server-name/item-name. You can also drag a remote desktop or published application URI from another app into the desktop and application selection window, the Favorites window, or the Recent window.
