[cccc]

Hi

I cannit minimize citrix virtual desktop running on Ubuntu with citrix client (receiver), version 12.1.0.
Knows someone howto configure citrix client to get Shift-F2 working like on Windows machines?

I still cannot find any solution.

Use Ctrl-F1 or Ctrl-F2 (I think). Double hitting them usually works.

I have tried, but still doesn't work.

Perhaps try installing autokey .. http://code.google.com/p/autokey/ ?

This seems like a change in the newest ubuntu. As I mentioned earlier this used to work well for me. But now for the life of me I cannot leave my fullscreen citrix session. I usually have to switch to a tty and kill the process there before switching back to my graphical desktop. Seems poor to me!

I think I managed to restore it!
Add the following to both ~/.ICAClient/appsrv.ini and ~/.ICAClient/wfclient.ini (or either of these two if only one exists - I might have had one lying around from an old install). My wfclient.ini already had it but my appsrsv didn't. Adding to appsrv fixes.
Add the following just after [WFCClient]

Hotkey1Char=F1
Hotkey1Shift=Shift
Hotkey2Char=F3
Hotkey2Shift=Shift
Hotkey3Char=F2
Hotkey3Shift=Shift
Hotkey4Char=F1
Hotkey4Shift=Ctrl
Hotkey5Char=F2
Hotkey5Shift=Ctrl
Hotkey6Char=F2
Hotkey6Shift=Alt
Hotkey7Char=plus
Hotkey7Shift=Alt
Hotkey8Char=minus
Hotkey8Shift=Alt
Hotkey9Char=F3
HotKey9Shift=Ctrl
Hotkey10Char=F5
HotKey10Shift=Ctrl
Hotkey11Char=plus
Hotkey11Shift=Ctrl
Hotkey12Char=plus
Hotkey12Shift=Ctrl
Hotkey13Char=plus
Hotkey13Shift=Ctrl

And you should be good to go - this is based of info from Habituals update.

Thx, I've tried and still doesn't work.
BTW I'm using Citrix Desktop from XenServer 6.1.

In the host environment configure the shortcut to Minimise window: Start -> Keyboard -> Shortcuts -> Minimise window (i.e. I picked ALT+F9).
Then from the citrix receiver CTRL+F2 then ALT+F9 ... then click anywhere on the screen.
