Re: Help on searching application in activities overview

["Norman L. Smith" <nls1729 gmail com>]

Hello:

Exec=groupwise
Exec=gwclient.png

Exec=nmclient
Exec=nmclient.png


I believe the second Exec='s  should be Icon= .

Also the icon path should be fully qualified and the executable must be
in the user's PATH or fully qualified.  I stopped looking at your
attachments when I looked at the .desktop files.  

See:
https://developer.gnome.org/desktop-entry-spec/

If you have a functional .desktop just dropping it
into /usr/share/applications works for me.

Hope this is useful.

Norman
