Shortcuts in the Multiple Screen Observe Window

You can access several Apple Remote Desktop commands using icons in the observe window. You can customize the observe window with the commands that are most useful to you. For example, you may want to access the Copy Items command, the Text Chat command, and the Lock Screen command, using the buttons in the observe window toolbar. You perform Remote Desktop tasks on any computer by selecting its screen and choosing a task from the Remote Desktop menus or the observe window toolbar.

Regardless of your toolbar customizations, you’ll be able to advance through pages manually, change the titling of the observed screens, change the number of client screens per page, change the number of seconds before paging, or change the color depth of the observed screens.

Observing a Single Computer

When you observe a single computer, the observed screen appears in a window on your administrator computer. If a screen saver is active when you observe the screen, the screen saver remains in effect. The observe window contains a “Share mouse control” button to switch to controlling the screen.

To observe a single computer:

1Select a computer list in the Remote Desktop window.

2Select a computer in the Remote Desktop window.

3Choose Interact > Observe.

If the observed computer’s screen is larger than the observe window, the screen will scroll as the pointer approaches the edge of the window.

4To customize the single-client observe window and session, see “Control Window Options” on page 79. The observe window’s options are the same as those of the control window.
