Oh, haevens, this again!
And don't be sorry for asking as this can be a doctorat work for
psychology student.
Nothing is intuitive, and each of us brings habits from what we learned
in previous enviroment.
So don't even try, new enviroment needs new skills, but you can make it
easier and "kindergarten"
controlled by use of pictures (icons).
So sharpen your administrative skills and go to work.

Good luck!
