You can run multiple Citrix desktop sessions simultaneously on different monitors. In this section, you assign one or more monitors to each session. 

If a desktop session is not assigned to monitors, the default settings in the general section of this Setup page apply to it.

This feature works only with desktop sessions; published applications cannot be controlled. 

 For each Citrix desktop session, click   to configure a corresponding monitor setup. The following parameters must be set:

Citrix session name: Name of the desktop session as displayed in the browser, desktop, or Self-Service. The session name is provided by the server. The wildcards "*" (any number of any characters) and "?" (any single character) can be used. 

Example

With three desktop sessions that are named "Desktop2019", "DesktopW10", and "DesktopD10", you can assign settings like so, for instance:

"Desktop*": The settings are assigned to all three desktops.

"Desktop?10": The settings are assigned to "DesktopW10" and "DesktopD10".

"DesktopW10": The settings are assigned to "DesktopW10".

Multimonitor full-screen mode: Defines how the desktop sessions are distributed over the monitors. For the arrangement of the monitors and their numbering, go to User Interface > Display (see Display Settings in IGEL OS).

Possible options:

  • Restrict full-screen session to one monitor: The desktop session is displayed on the monitor that is selected under Desktop session start monitor.
  • Expand full-screen session across all monitors: The desktop session uses all monitors.
  • Expand the session over a self-selected number of monitors: The monitors can be selected with Monitor selection.
