(Solved) - Panel Question

Post by scrubby »

Hello,
When I minimize programs they appear on the panel from right to left.
How do I change that so they are left to right?

Thanks

This may not be correct.
Right click on the panel
Select 'panel settings'
Click 'Left Zone'

Yeah, sorry. I see that that won't work.

You can try this:

But it doesn't work for everyone.

To quote Smurphos here viewtopic.php?f=208&t=278579
You can rearrange the applets on any panel by enabling panel edit mode via right click on the panel.
After you enable panel edit mode...left click drag the left stuff of the panel to the center and that will ( like I have mine) and that will guarantee ( if your pane is set to Traditional )whatever programs you have running that you minimized will be minimized on the left zone of the panel

I didn't see in this post/comments webpage where you specified if you have your pane set to " modern" or " traditional " so that may matter here. *shrugs*

It turns out the switching the pane to traditional solved the issue I was having.
