98 Chapter 4 Interacting With Users
ARD allows you to observe multiple clients on the same screen, rotating through the
list of observed computers. This allows you to monitor many screens without having to
select each one individually.
When observing a single client, you can see the client window at full size, or scaled to
fit the observe window. To switch between actual size and fitting to the window, click
the Fit to Window button, just as you would in a control window.
If you’re observing more clients than you’ve chosen to fit on one screen, you can rotate
through multiple pages by clicking the Forward and Back buttons.
Changing Observe Settings While Observing
While you are observing multiple computers, you can adjust the Apple Remote
Desktop observe settings using the controls at the top of the observe window.
To change your observe settings:
• Adjust the number of client screens visible on each page.
• Adjust the number of seconds before automatically advancing to the next page of
screens.
