Purpose

I wanted the vmware view client to launch with pre-populated fields.

Process

[1]Shortcuts are found in /usr/share/applications, in this case /usr/share/applications/vmware-view.desktop . I then update the following line with the domain and user switches 

Exec=vmware-view %u -d <yourdomain> -u <username>
