this report has been filed here: https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-user-docs/+bug/366408 The section on Introduction to the Desktop / Using the Panels / Managing Panels is not up to date, on GNOME 2.26 you need to press ALT+Click on a vacant space to move the panel and that's is not reflected on the documentation, right now it said: "Drag a panel to another side of the screen to move it there. Click on any vacant space on the panel to begin the drag." which isn't the case. Thanks,
