Hi Mike -Mike Walsh wrote:...how do you get the extra buttons in the taskbar on the menu side?
Your OBPrecise spin is (I believe) using the excellent, easily tweakable LXpanel. So -
Right-click an empty space on the panel/taskbar, choose "Add/Remove Panel Items" from the popup menu.
From the "Preferences" window's "Panel Applets" tab, click the "Add" button.
From the new "Add plugin to panel" window, scroll down and select "Application Launch Bar" - then hit the "Add" button... an empty (button) space should then appear on the panel's RH side.
Now, back in the Preferences' "Panel Applets" tab/window, highlight your newly-added "Application Launch Bar" and hit the "Edit" button to add your desired menu application choice(s).
The Up and Down buttons in the "Panel Applets" tab then allows you to move your new launch button to where you prefer on the panel.
You can later right-click the new button, choose "Application Launch Bar Settings" to add/remove more application buttons to/from the launcher.
Handy!
Hope that might be of some use...
