I use the Apple Remote Desktop 3 Dashboard widget to check the condition of my servers and users without having to spark up ARD. But I find the screen-size displayed in the widget is too small.
I discovered I could increase the screen size by doing the following:
- Control-click on /Library/Widgets/Remote Desktop.wdgt, and choose Show Package Contents.
- In the Contents folder, open info.plist with a text editor (currently I use Text Wrangler).
- Change the value of the Height key from 227 to something larger. I used 558.
- Change the value of the Width key from 490 to something larger. I used 980.
- Save the changes and close the file.
- Use Dashboard to close and reopen the widget.
