How can I use Apple screen sharing in full screen mode?

Question

I've tried everything but I can only get Apple screen sharing to work in a window on its own.

Answer 1

I don't believe Screen Sharing.app supports full-screen display, but you can use another VNC client. The go-to client for Mac OS X is Chicken of the VNC, which is featureful and easy to use.

Answer 2

Stephen is correct. Screen Sharing doesn't support full screen, but Apple Remote Desktop does support full screen... (The ARD application that is...)

So if you have a large number of systems you are trying to remotely manage, ARD might be a good investment. Otherwise, other applications (VNC), can and do support full screen sharing...
