Remote desktop - populate screen of control computer automatically?

Hello,

I use Remote Desktop on one computer to control/observe 8 other computers at my workplace with students. Every day when I start Remote Desktop, I have to click on each computer that I monitor, click "Control" on the top menu and then resize each computer image on my master computer's screen one by one. Is there a way to arrange all of the monitored/controlled computers the way I want (the setup below), and then somehow save the setup, so that the next time I launch Remote Desktop, they all appear one by one at the size I've made them and with the settings I've preselected.

Is there a way to do this, or do I have to manually continue to select the computers one by one on the master screen to monitor and control them?

TIA,

Karen

Never mind - I found that if I select all of the computers with command-A and then click Observe, it gives me a window with all of the computers on my screen at one time. Then I can control an individual computer as needed. (I would have deleted the original post but don't see a way to do that. Weird.)

Cheers,

Karen
