Applications on right of ibar icons instead of left?[SOLVED]

When you right click the "shelf" and select Begin Moving Gadgets, you should be able to rearrange things with mouse. If there is no gap between two gadgets they may stick together, so you may have to seperate and move gadgets back and forth a bit to get things exactly where you want, but in the end when you're done and you right click and Stop Moving Gadgets things will stay where you put them. I believe your goal is to put the ibar to the right of the start button, perhaps with no gap, and taskbar to the right of ibar, probably also no gap unless you want it.

When you right click an item on the ibar, you'll find other settings, including one to reorder items on the ibar itself.

As someone pointed out in another thread recent thread, when we add or remove a gadgets from a shelf, you will most likely have to rearrange everything again.    [What appears to happen is it puts it the last place it was before, and if something is already there, moves that, which makes other things move, and everything all mixed up.  This is good if you remove then add something back without any changes inbetween, but in most cases not so helpful].
