    Lock or Unlock - Panel stays locked [SOLVED]

    I can lock or unlock my Panel and nothing is different. I don't see the little menu appearing anymore where I could select "move" or "remove" my applet.

    How could I fix this?

    When you right-click and 'Lock Panels' the full menu is not available. Just right-click the panel again and select to 'Unlock Panel' to get the full menu back.

        :P

        Have you tried resetting each item in Configure Panel to its defaults?

          In the Panel:

          I can move/remove the K Menu, Desktop Access, System Menu, Firefox.

          I can't move/remove the Quick Launcher, Desktop Preview and Pager, Taskbar, System Tray, Waste bin, Clock.

          Off course those latest I can remove them with right click panel -> Remove from Panel -> select,,, but that isn't the point.

            On each of the things you can't move/remove, there should be a little handle (hidden until mouseover) on the far left of that object. You can drag this handle to move the object, or right-click on it on click on the little arrow at the top of the handle to get the menu, which includes "Remove [object]".

              That appears to be exactly what Xeor may be looking for.

                Yes you are, this is exactly what is missing ?!

                  You don't have them? At all? They should appear when moused over, or when the object they are attached to is moused over. I have one for the taskbar, the desktop pager, the system tray, the clock, and the trash applet. Are you sure it's not just that you can't see them (i.e. they can still be interacted with)?

                    I understand what you are talking about. I used to have those and used to use those. But now they are gone, nothing appear at all when I rolled my mouse over there where they used to be.

                      And you can't interact with them as if they were just remaining hidden, they're really gone?

                        I even tried to right as close as possible from the icons but nothing. It's just like if I was (and I am) straight on the panel. Nothing between the panel and the icons I can't move.

                          The handle appears as a very small square in the upper left corner (or it should). In the panel image attached, it is the little square to the upper right of the Amorak quick launch icon. For each of the panel sections, this handle appears in the same location - upper left corner.

                            Check Right-Click Panel>Configure Panel>Appearance>Advanced Options>Applet Handles
                            Choose either 'Visible' or 'Fade Out'
