15 The task bar is nothing special. It's just a plasmoid/widget. Simply
16 delete the floating one and insert a new one in the panel.
17
18 To do this, first make sure you have selected "Unlock Widgets" in Plasma
19 (simply right click on the Plasma desktop for this, or click the icon on
20 the top-right corner of the desktop), then you can delete the task
21 manager widget.
22
23 Then, click the icon to the far right of the panel and select "Add
24 Widgets". Then in the search bar, type "task manager" or scroll and
25 find the "Task Manager" widget manually, and drag&drop it to wherever
26 you want it in the panel.
27
28 You can also create more than one panels and put different widgets in
29 them (for example top and bottom panels like in Gnome.)
