Desktop Keyboard Shortcuts
Depending on the type of application window you are using (full screen, standard, or seamless), you can
use shortcut keys (see Table 3-1) to manage windows.
Tip The shortcut keys Alt+DownArrow (allows you to switch windows using a dialog box) and
Alt+Ctrl+DownArrow (minimizes or maximizes all windows) are useful for navigating multiple remote
sessions without having to log out.
Connecting to a Monitor
Monitor connections can be made using the DVI (digital) monitor port and the proper monitor
cables/splitters. For VGA (analog) monitor connections, you must use the included DVI-to-VGA
adapter. For information on configuring display settings, see Configuring Display Settings, page 4-5.
Tip If you connect a DVI monitor and a VGA monitor to the DVI port using a DVI to DVI/VGA splitter, the
VGA monitor is the primary monitor.
If you connect one DVI monitor to the DVI port and a second DVI monitor to the Display Port using a
Display Port to DVI adapter, the Display Port monitor is the primary monitor.
