Depending on what you do, you're going to want '''to organize your windows''' differently (specially nice using a small screen, such 13"). 

You have 4 different game desktops, by default the shortcuts are F1 to F4 (K to change the shortcuts) - keyboard shortcuts are the same in the Game <ref>Better not change them (specially I or P), as they show/hide basic windows of the game... it could be difficult to talk with friends, or the support :) 
</ref>. 

As the default is number '''1''', you can add/hide toolbars and a lot of windows by pressing '''F1''' (hold down the key F1 to open this window):
[[File:EN F1 key held down 2019-06-14.png|thumb|left|Tools and windows of the screen]]Here are some '''basic keyboard shortcuts''' 

* F1, F2, F3 and F4: switch on one of your 4 screens (desktops), while
* holding down the Fx key displays the configuration screen of the screen x (x=1 to 4). It can be used as a reminder of several basic keyboard shortcuts. 
On each Fx screen, you can change opacity and hide/show and move several toolbars and windows using
* Status: Identity ('''P'''), Journal of Mission ('''J'''), Encyclopedia ('''Shift+E''')
* Actions & inventory: Inventory ('''I'''), action progression ('''B''') 
* Guild and Team: Team ('''T''') and later Guild ('''G''')
* Communication: fame ('''Shift+f'''), web ('''Shift+W'''), '''F'''riends
* Orientation: '''M'''ap 
* Animals:  '''Shift+P''' (as Pets). 
* Options: Configuration ('''U'''), Keybindings (K), Connection ('''Shift+N''' as Network) - in here, '''global to the game'''.
