1. You need to create a .desktop file
2. You will need to Allow Launching by right clicking the desktop file
3. Right click the source AppImage and

Properties > Permissions > enable " Allow executing file as program"

4. Copy paste the .desktop file in

.local/share/applications

Now you will be able to access GIMP through Dash / Dock / Lens , whatever you call it.

5. If you want it on Dock panel, right click " Add to Favourites "

Hi,


Thanks for your advice.

I have done your steps 1) to 4) but I have way to start GIMP.  I couldn't find it on Activities.  May be due to ownership root:vboxsf problem

Now I found the solution to the problem.  I'll create a new VM to test it again.
