Global Panel Preferences

To start configuring the GNOME panel, select Global Preferences from the Panel submenu of the Main Menu (you can access the main menu by either pressing the foot icon or by right-clicking on the panel).

This will bring the Global Panel Preferences dialog up (this dialog is one of the components of the GNOME Control Center). With this dialog you can set properties that will affect all Panels you use now and any panels you add in the future.

The Global Panel Configuration Dialog contains five tabs which help you configure the global properties of the GNOME Panel: Animation, Buttons, Panel Objects, Menu, and Miscellaneous. Each of these tabs is explained below.
