GNOME Panel is a highly configurable taskbar for GNOME. It formed a core part of the desktop in GNOME 1 and GNOME 2. It has been replaced in GNOME 3 by default with GNOME Shell, which only works with the Mutter window manager.
There are many applets for GNOME Panel available in one package called gnome-applets[2][3] while some applets included with GNOME Panel as built-in, like a traditional start menu.
GNOME Panel served as Fallback Mode until GNOME 3.8 when Mutter could not be executed,[4] then it was replaced with a suite of officially supported GNOME Shell extensions named GNOME Classic.[5] Now it is part of GNOME Flashback, an official session for GNOME 3 which provides a user experience similar to GNOME 2.[6]
In GNOME 3, customizing GNOME Panel is done by pressing the Alt key while right-clicking on the panel.
