Next, I set up nine bookmarks to take full advantage of the F2-F10 keys for moving around quickly. Then I went through some favorite screens to rearrange things and, very importantly, to save them as views and filters; this saves much mouse-clicking.
Big difference. I'm enjoying this eleventh season of my league more than I have in "years." So, I guess the lesson, for me at least, was to be aware of the customizability of this game that was intended to take the place of the coziness, but rigidity, of the OOTP 6.5 interface.

Almost exactly as I mine is set up, with the exception of saved filters and views. For some reason, probably fear of screwing something up, I've only used those on a temporary basis. I'll have to explore further how better to take advantage of them.
Out of curiosity, what do you bookmark? I know Player Shortlist is the first thing I added because it takes me forever to remember where it is otherwise.
