[HOWTO] Change GNOME 3 panels
I am used to have the clock at hte upper right corner. Moreover, I don't find the user menu useful, so I wanted to remove it and place the clock to the right instead.
Here is how to do it:
Open dconf-editor (note that gconf-editor does not work)
Browse to org.gnome.gnome-panel.layout and edit the object-id-list removing 'user-menu' from the list.
The user menu should disappear immediatly (else you might need a session restart)
For moving the clock, go to org.gnome.gnome-panel.layout.objects.clock and change pack-type from center to end.
The change does not happen automatically, you need at least to remove it from org.gnome.gnome-panel.layout object-id-list and
readd it to see the effect.

Re: [HOWTO] Change GNOME 3 panels
or you can just press alt and right click on them 
Give what you have. To someone, it may be better than you dare to think.

The right click menu only contains Copy the hour, copy the date and clock preferences

I haven't checked, but have you added this to the wiki ? (GNOME 3 page)

Yes, but together with Alt it contains "Move" and "Remove from panel". Alas, dconf-editor contains many interesting things.

Re: [HOWTO] Change GNOME 3 panels
I tried with Alt, Ctrl, Meta... There's no move or remove anywhere. Maybe it appears only with gnome-shell and not with fallback?

It only appears in fallback. When i was using fallback, however, I wasn't able to get the alt+right-click menu to appear while Compiz was running.
