Well I don't really expect this to get answered.. but I really wish that I could 'pin' applications to lxpanel like in cairo-dock and docky and windows taskbar.
If anyone could help me that would be great.

Ahhh...do you mean like what I did with my top panel? (See attachment...)
You can do quite a lot with lxpanel using the configuration window Rodney9 explained.

Ah sorry guess I should've explained.
I mean I want to have a launcher for chromium (for example) that will either
*open a new instance if chromium is not already open
*raise an already running instance to the front

I can click on Chromium in the panel, then click again and again and again, 3 more come up. Then I click which one I want to see and use, in the panel.

But's that just it: I would like to only every have *one* window of each program. I don't need 5 instances of chrome - I just need 1 with 5 tabs.
Same for almost every application.
