Section of panel disappeared

I'm running Zorin 5.2 and this morning when booting up the right hand end of the panel was gone, the part that tells to log off or shutdown. How do I correct this? Haven't seen this before.

Open a terminal (ctrl+Alt+T) and write

Code:
killall gnome-panel


and hit <enter>

Thanks. I'll try it later because after the second reboot, the panel corrected itself.

It is a frequent "bug" of the panel bar which happens only in the win7 look. I used to have it my-self, I have done various fixes but still sometimes it happened again.
I changed to gnome look, and I never had any problem again...

Hi
When I have this problem I just right click on the panel choose options and move from Bottom to left then back to bottom always fixes it.
