Description
Most appropriate sub-area of Processing 4?
Accessibility, I'm not sure
Processing version
4.4.10
Operating system
Zorin OS 18 (Ubuntu 24.04.03 LTS)
Bug description
I’m new to Processing, when i first installed the app from the GNOME Software app, i was so confused because i wasn't finding the icon of the app on the app drawer because its missing. I tried to reboot the computer and re-installing the software from terminal but same problem. Now i don't know if this is actually an intentional thing (u have to use the terminal to open the app) or a real bug, but i would like to have an app short cut for easier access.
Steps to reproduce this
-
Install Processing from Snap Store (using Ubuntu's App Center or GNOME Software).
-
Check if the software appears in the app drawer.

Research direction
Start by installing Processing 4.4.10 from the Snap Store through Ubuntu's App Center or GNOME Software on Ubuntu 24.04.03 LTS or Zorin OS 18, then check the app drawer and compare the installed package's launcher behavior. Done means the Snap-installed Processing application has a discoverable app shortcut in the drawer.
