It would be nice to have a page to navigate to that had no content, but all the links (or tabs), and only links, to all the pages. So, for example, I could navigate to one page that has links to league events, upcoming free agents, team roster,...without needing to go through a separate page that has content.

Bookmarks.

I never use the icons on the bottom except to click on the mail icon on occasion. Very seldom use the back/foward buttons. Use the bookmarks and recent menus often. I use the other menus the rest of the time. I would like to see a lot more drag and drop options.

i use the right click almost exclusively and when that doesn't work I use the drop downs to go exactly where I want

Now that it is 2010 how about the ability to copy and paste? A UI issue going back as far as OOTP V4.....

Things might be able to be grouped differently, but I thik the interface is solid. It takes some time to remember where some of the functions are locate.

example:

I always look for the option to turn off commissioner mode in the league menu, as oposed to tthe manager menu.

Althogh I do feel they are in a logical place, I also always have a hard ttime rememberring where to go to set up affilicates and change the names of minor league teams.

I don't know if this is possible (code issues, overall desire of the community, any other factors) but it would be nice to be able to change team names right from league configuration.

This could be a major undertaking, but I think it would also be nice to bring affilicates into that screen.

This isn't really an interface issue, but I'll use the end of this post to harp on one of my main issues. I would love to see the ability to release all personel and have the coaches signing period brought back.

I voted for the 'forward and back' buttons and the 'Icons at the bottom'. I almost exclusively use both of those (along with right clicking).

I also use bookmarks, just not that often. But they are very useful and would hate to see them removed.

I, literally, never use the 'recent' menu.

And as many others have stated, more/customizable icons for the bottom menu would be near the top of my wish list for ootp11.

The forward and back buttons need to be much much larger and circular shaped. Maybe the size of a quarter when playing at 1600x1200. I get carpel tunnel trying to click on those tiny buttons and they are probably the most used buttons in the game.
