Introduction

The XFce panel is part of the XFce Desktop Environment and features program lauchers, popup menus, a desktop switcher and more. The actual command to run is xfce4-panel. Many aspects of the panel can be configured through graphical dialogs.

If you are familiar with previous versions of XFce you will find many new features. Most visible are probably the vertical panel mode, the icon themes, the new graphical pager and the variable position of the popup buttons. The way preferences are handled has changed completely, so it may take some time to get used to. This manual should provide you with all necessary information on how to adjust the panel to your liking.
