Lubuntu, panel items are not arranged in proper way

My Lubuntu panel contains some running applets, but they are not arranged in order, and there is empty space between them. This particularly annoys me when using minimized windows.

Take a look at the image; that will explain what I'm trying to say:

enter image description here

I don't have it any more exactly like this, but I can't see the minimized windows on upper panel. I have created another upper panel and customized it as I need but my minimized windows are not displaying there either.

How can I sort my Panel?

ok after many trails on this issue . i did some progress . The first thing is delete the panel if it sounds bad , restart the panel .i did the process with only one panel.

ps -C lxpanel

Thats going to display the PID of lxpanel.
Then we have to kill the lxpanel process .

kill <pid of the lxpanel>

then again in the terminal type as

lxpanel

Thats will do the restart of lxpanel with proper arrangement of the all panel elements.I need help about how to make it as script , because i am failing while getting the process ID and one more thing is to run the script all time , then only we can achieve this .

and one more thing about how to get minimized applets on the panel means we have to add a panel item " Task bar(window list) " panel item.then minimized windows will be in panel.
