  • How can I create launchers on my desktop?

    18 answers




I'm a new Linux user.



I've installed Intellij Idea and Webstorm. Everything was fine. But then I changed the system language from Bangla to English(US) (I am from Bangladesh, but I prefer to see the dates in English). And since then I cannot find Intellij Idea and WebStorm in installed apps.



So I changed back to Bangla but it didn't fix the problem. If I go to the directory where I extracted the files and run the command ./idea.sh then the program runs alright, I can code there and run it. But again when I close Intellij idea then I cannot find it in the Installed application section. I also tried Software Center. But there it shows as not installed.

          You haven't created two things:




          1. A terminal launcher, and

          2. An entry for the .desktop file.


          Launch the apps like you did from their folders then in the menu go to the Tools menu and under it select Create Command-line launcher and Create Desktop Entry respectively. Now you should see the icons to launch the apps.



          options dialog
