@minerz029 its just an approach to know the new things about the ubuntu interface and I got suggestion to have different threads of question and not repeating all threads in one. And the questions are not duplicate they both resemble different queries – algosig Jan 06 '14 at 10:41

My apologies if it is indeed a different question, however both the questions looked fundamentally similar ("how can we edit them. How are they programmed? What programming language is used to built the interfaces?") – kiri Jan 06 '14 at 10:43

please visit this link: How can I move the System menu on the top bar to the left side?.. If you don't like the appearance of the Unity desktop you could try using different other desktop environments available for Ubuntu/Linux.. – rusty Jan 06 '14 at 11:04

One great way of achieving most of these tasks without having to touch the code is by installing gnome-tweak-tool
with the following commands:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ricotz/testing
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install gnome-tweak-tool
This tool will be able to achieve most of what you want to do. Whatever it can't do can usually be done with some tweaking in dconf Editor
(available from the dash).
