How to create a custom launcher in Cairo Dock?
I'm trying to create a custom launcher for Aptana Studio in my Cairo Dock. I begun by right click → Add custom launcher and I'm stuck at entering the command? What am I supossed to put in there (I tried ./AptanaStudio3 - but it doesn't work). I'm using Ubuntu 12.04.
I have already created an Aptana Studio 3.desktop file and it has an icon; my only problem is I cannot put it into my cairo dock.

Actually by default the Applications Menu applet is enabled, so you can just drag any program from this menu into the dock.

That's wierd. cause when im running aptana it automatically be in my dock but when i close it it will also be gone on cairo. What i do on my other application is that I run it so it will be on my dock and then right clicking on it and click the "make it a Launcher" option. that just doesnt work on aptana same goes with update manager.
