He's using Gnome... The "Click here to hide all windows and show the Desktop" button is to the far right. If you right click the button and choose "Move" you can slide it to any part of the panel....

That is what you are looking for right?

absolutely right! i ever try to use click n drag as well but not help. i think i must suggest to Suse team to provide click n drag method rather than choose 'move' as provided in ms windows xp. many thanks for your solution. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
