Description

When using external Windows keyboard attached to iOS device, you may not be able to use some keyboard shortcut combinations in Citrix session.

Examples:

  • Use of 'Windows key' may not give desired result.
  • Cannot highlight multiple items (files in explorer or cells in a spreadsheet) by keeping 'Ctrl' pressed and left mouse click.
  • 'Enter' key may not work within 'Run' window.
  • Some shortcuts with more than three keys

Resolution

An enhancement has been added in Citrix Workspace app for iOS 24.1.0 version to address these issues.
