Gnome classic and Mint 12 Panel

[tommytis]

Hello,

I recently have changed from Ubuntu to Mint... and so far mint looks good... I like using compiz andsome other functions only available on gnome 2. So I have logged in with the Gnome classic and everything looks default... good....

My problem is that I would like to remove the panels top and bottom. In ubuntu i used to do this by right clicking on panel and deleting. On mint 12 this is not possible... I want to know how I can remove both top and bottom panels? I have already configured cairo-dock to replace these panels.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Kind regards,

Tommy

It's Alt+right click in Gnome Classic. ("Thanks" for that Alt thing should be sent directly to Gnome developers.)
I suggest you log into MATE session instead, you'll find it much easier to configure since it's Gnome 2 fork.

It did not work...

Hi people know... I found that you can login with the cairo-dock enabled from the login screen. Just change it from gnome to cairo-dock with open GL or without for those that dont have a high end graphics card.

Kind regards,

I am just a new user to mint, but I love it. Best OS ever!
To answer your question, I have found a way to "change" the look of it.
What you have to do is alt+right click on either bar and you can make it smaller, or move it to the top of the screen.
I hope that answers your question
To answer your reply, it does work on my version. just make sure you hold down alt and then right click.

I have the same problem,

I changed mine in Gnome Classic (no effects). Don't know if it works in others. I am now using cinnamon, and there is a settings panel which lets you choose options. It is still a work in progress, but still funtional.

Thanx! It worked for me.
