I want to set the right icon of Scala IDE in the Ubuntu launcher, because it appears the ? icon.

My version of Ubuntu is 16.04.

Thanks in advance for your help! :)

You need found *.desktop file for Scala IDE and insert line like: Icon=path/to/icon

In the terminal, move to /usr/share/applications/

There, I have to create a .desktop file, with the next content:

[Desktop Entry]
Type=Application
Encoding=UTF-8
Name=Scala         //you can choose whatever you want
Comment=Scala IDE
Exec=/path/to/the/executable
Icon=/path/to/the/photo.jpg
Terminal=false
Type=Application
Categories=GNOME;Application;Development;
StartupNotify=true`

First I used the file icon.xpm, but it didn't work.

I had to download a .jpg icon from Google Images.
