Configure Horizon Client to Support Reversed Mouse Buttons

If the primary and secondary mouse buttons are switched in a remote desktop, you can configure Horizon Client to support reversed mouse buttons.

If you set the mouse properties inside the remote desktop so that the primary mouse button is on the right side, as many left-handed people do, you must turn on the Left Handed Mode option in Horizon Client. If you do not turn on this option when the mouse buttons are reversed, a single tap acts as a click of the secondary mouse button. For example, a single tap might display a context menu rather than selecting text or inserting a cursor.

Procedure

• If you are already connected to the remote desktop, perform these steps.
  1. Tap to expand the Horizon Client Tools radial menu icon and tap the Settings (gear) icon to open the Settings window.
  2. Tap Touch on the Settings window.
  3. Tap Left Handed Mode to toggle the option to on.
  4. Tap Done to close the Settings window.
• If you are not connected to the remote desktop, perform these steps.
  1. Tap Settings at the bottom of the Horizon Client window.
  2. Tap Touch on the Settings window.
  3. Tap Left Handed Mode to toggle the option to on.

Results

A single tap now acts as a click with the primary mouse button.
