Display a Remote Desktop on a Single Monitor in a Multiple-Monitor Setup

If you have two or more monitors, but you want a remote desktop window to appear on only one monitor, you can configure the remote desktop window to open on a single monitor.

Prerequisites

You must have two or more monitors.

Procedure

1. Start Omnissa Horizon Client and connect to a server.

2. Right-click the remote desktop in the desktop and application selection window and select Display or Settings.

3. From the Display drop-down menu, select one of the following:

   • Full Screen - This Monitor

   • Window - Large or Large Screen

     This option maximizes the window size.

   • Window - Small or Small Screen

     This option sets the window size to 640 x 480 pixels in 100 percent scaling.

   • Custom Size (available only from the Settings window)

     This option lets you select a specific window size.

Results

By default, the remote desktop window opens on the primary monitor. You can drag the remote desktop window to a non-primary monitor, and the next time you open the remote desktop, the remote desktop window appears on that same monitor. The window opens, is centered in the monitor, and uses the window size that you selected for the display mode, not a size that you might have created by dragging the window to resize it.
