Hello. I can't seem to find what I'm looking for in any of the GNOME documentation so maybe someone here will know what I'm talking about and point me in the correct direction. I've recently installed RH 7.2 and was happy to see it came with an updated GNOME. At first, the new GNOME panel would show four little screens that alt-F2, alt-F3, etc. would let me change to. The GNOME panel also USED to show an icon for each program I had open. Then when playing with it I learned it could show an ICON for each progam and if you clicked the icon it would show you the list of windows the program had open. Very cool for when running a program like the GIMP that usually opens 3 windows before you even open a file. But now neither of these features are on my panel. Finding out how to fix this is problematic because I don't know what GNOME calls these features. For some reason, the GNOME panel manual omits any discussion of them, as far as I can tell, and instead focuses on adding application launchers and moving the panel to new sides of the screen. Do you know the names of these features? Or how to restore them? Thanks, --Damon
