So, by default, the Shift F2 hotkey has been replaced with these handy buttons to enter full-screen mode (from windowed mode).Īnd to return to Windowed mode when in full-screen mode. If you wanted to use Shift F2 instead, the desktop toolbar would have to be disabled.īut the desktop toolbar has a ton of really useful features (USB device management, preferences, Ctrl Alt Del, etc.), so disabling it to get Shift F2 back is not always a good option.įortunately, there is a new policy and hotkey for doing exactly this: Hotkeys for Desktop Viewer, shown below. To enable this policy, you need to use the Workspace App ADM template OR edit some registry keys on the client machine. We will look at both options, starting with the ADM template. You can find this policy in the Workspace App ADM template under Computer configuration/administrative templates/Citrix Workspace/User Experience. Now if you close and re-launch any desktop sessions, you should be able to toggle in and out of full-screen mode using the hotkey! Simply enable the policy, choose the three-key combination of your choice, and click OK. Please note, if the hotkey combination you chose is already mapped to a local hotkey, it will continue to perform a local action and not be applied to the Citrix viewer window. In my case Ctrl Alt F1 opened my local GPU management pane, so I switched it to Ctrl Alt F3, which was unused. Before applying the policy, try the key combination you choose on your local machine to see if it has any effect. If it does, try another.Īlso note that this policy does NOT have any dependency on the “allow hotkeys” registry setting.
