sudo chmod 644 /usr/share/applications/intellij.desktop | |
sudo chown root:root /usr/share/applications/intellij.desktop |
You can also use Intellij IDEA itself to create the Ubuntu launcher icon, as answered elsewhere:
- Launch from commandline. If launching for the first time, setup will ask about creating a desktop launcher icon; say yes. Or else after launching (ie. from the commandline) any time, use the IDEA menu Configure > Create Desktop Entry . That should create /usr/share/applications/intellij-idea-community.desktop
- Trigger the Ubuntu desktop search (ie. Windows key), find the Intellij IDEA you used to create the desktop entry.
- Drag the icon it's showing into the Ubuntu Launcher.
great...tnx alot
thanks a lot, I solved... :)
changing .svg to .png in ~/.local/share/applications/jetbeans-idea-ce.desktop

Thank you
Thanks a lot!
Thanks very much!
Thanks a lot.
I think it's easier to
- open Intelli J
- Click on "Tools"
- Click on "Create Desktop Entry..."
... and be done.
Noice
thank you

Yeah, the instructions say Open IntelliJ, click Tools, then click "Create Desktop Entry." What it DOESN'T say is between step 1 and 2 you have to open a project. The issue is there is a Tools object on the launch screen, but you need the Tools MENU. @8FN you are the man.
Thanks!! work perfectly!

I'm not getting any Create Desktop Entry option in my Intellij. My OS is POP 20.04 LTS and I installed from a standalone tar file.
