I created one, which formed directly above one that I already had (at the bottom of one of my two screens). Just out of curiosity I asked it to autohide. That was a big mistake. Now, I am unable to right click to remove or change the panel (the right click menu doesn't appear). This is true for all my panels. I thought logging out might fix it. No luck. Restart. No luck. Now my "top level" panel won't load, which means I don't have access to any of the main menus at all. I resolved the issue by doing the following, but this would be difficult for the average user: 1. Created a launcher for terminal: Right click on desktop, select create launcher, command is: /usr/bin/gnome-terminal 2. Opened Nautilus from terminal with command: nautilus. 3. Navigated to: .gconf/apps/panel/toplevels in the /home directory. 4. Deleted the last panel folder; in my case: panel_3 5. After delete, my other panels appeared and were then able to be edited as normal.
