Alt+Tab not working in remote desktop of citrix receiver on Linux mint 17

I use citrix to connect to office computer. But Alt+Tab wasn't seem to be working when I used remote desktop. I found few solution about HKEY edit solution for windows, but none for linux mint. I did some trial and error and finally found a solution myself.

I found this file in installation directory of ICAClient:

[17:43:43 harsshal@lenovo:~]$ ll /opt/Citrix/ICAClient/config/All_Regions.ini

lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 37 Nov 8 2013 /opt/Citrix/ICAClient/config/All_Regions.ini -> /etc/icaclient/config/All_Regions.ini
Went to link and started edited this file

[17:44:08 harsshal@lenovo:~]$ sudo vim /etc/icaclient/config/All_Regions.ini

Search for "TransparentKeyPassthrough" in "Virtual Channels" section and add "Remote" in front of it.

[Virtual Channels\Keyboard]
TransparentKeyPassthrough=Remote

Save and restart Remote Desktop Connection
