The bars across the top and bottom of the desktop are called ''panels''. The top panel (shown below) contains the desktop menus, icons to launch commonly used applications such as the web browser and email client and other items such as the date and time and various status indicators.

The properties of the desktop panels are controlled using the ''Panel Properties'' dialog. To access the Panel Properties for a particular panel, move the mouse pointer over a blank section of the panel and click the right hand mouse button. In the resulting popup menu select the ''Properties'' menu option to invoke ''Panel Properties'':
