Thank you for moving me 
I don't want to step on any ones toes but perhaps a video might help those folk like me who do not understand the language used in manuals. ;D
I've made a video of customizing the standard panel to what I've been using for the past few years
The top row is 2 minimized windows and the next row is 2 multi-launchers, followed by notifications, clock and then the menu.
I like the extra screen real estate and just looking in one small area for info, menu etc.

If this seems a good approach perhaps folk will have some suggestions on how to improve the video, I don't mind redoing it.
If I've posted in the wrong place please move/remove.

I'm thinking about splitting it into Panel size and position, populating the panel and then about using the menu, three videos?
