How To Make A Dock With LXPanel! It’s actually pretty easy to make your own dock with LXPanel, it has the ability to do so built right in. It’s not too difficult, takes only a little time. When you’re done, it can look something like this: 1. Right click on an unoccupied space in your existing panel, and click on “Create New Panel.” 2.
