How do I change the clock position on panel in gnome 3.6?

Question

After the upgrade to 12.10 the clock on the gnome panel is now on the far right instead of the middle of the panel:

How do I fix it?

Answer 1

Ah, it turned out to be the fault of the "system-monitor extension". It has a checkbox 'move clock'.

To move the clock back:

1. Right-click on the System Monitor extension on the panel, then select Preferences.
2. Uncheck the Move the clock option.
3. Restart GNOME shell: Alt+F2 , type r and hit enter.
