The Fedora Desktop Panels are probably the most useful aspect of the entire desktop, and as with just about every other aspect of the GNOME desktop, these panels are accompanied by extensive configuration options.
== What are Desktop Panels ==
On a newly installed Fedora system there are two panels configured by default. These appear at the top and bottom of the desktop. The top panel contains the main desktop menus and a number of status areas with information such as the system date and time. The bottom panel contains the trash can, access to the various virtual workspaces and also has a button representing each application currently running in the current workspace.
