gnome-panel

I use the stripped down Gnome UI for 13.04 (Gnome-no effects) and on the bottom there is a panel where you can put icons for app launchers, by dragging them from applications menu.

This is probably a really dumb question, but I can't figure out how to REMOVE a launcher icon from that panel once I put there! How is this done?

Note - I saw another answer that said click alt-super and right click on top panel - I clicked remove launcher and now my top Application and Places menus are gone! How do I get them back - all screwed up now.
