OS X: How to configure/select which monitors the Horizon View Client is allowed to use for Fullscreen mode

Is there any way to configure/select which monitors the Horizon View Client is allowed to use for Fullscreen mode?

I have two 24" 1920x1200 monitors + the Macbook Pro 15" retina display.

I would like to limit the View Client to only use the two 24" monitors, leaving the Macbook Pro display free and available for my OS X applications.

Currently I have to close the Macbook loosing the 3rd monitor when connected to my VDI.

There is no setting today to do that - the client will try and use all monitors available to it. You can raise this on the product feature request page but for now your workaround is probably the only option if you want to use both 24-inch screens in multi-monitor mode.

When will the ability to select which monitors use the view client be available?

Additional question: Will Horizon View ever be able to just USE three monitors? (it currently breaks when I try)

Hi!

I have no trouble using 3 monitors - as long as the three monitors have the same resolution.

It also works fine switching between the 2 monitor setup at my home office and the 3 monitor setup at work.
