QcadCam .desktop name

Post by petevick » Wed Mar 13, 2024 4:29 pm

Can someone who uses QcadCam under Linux let me know what the name of .desktop file is please, it will be in the /home/UserName/.local/share/applications/ folder, you won't see the .desktop file extension but you will see a file that is named either QCAD or something like QCADCAM or QCAD-CAM.

I need the info for Qcad Theme Designer to work with QcadCam.

Many thanks.

IGNORE THE ABOVE, IT'S UTTER RUBBISH :D

Let me try again....

Right click on that file and select Open with text editor, once open you'll see at the top of the editor the actual file name, it'll be something like Ribbonsoft-qcad.desktop or more likely Ribbonsoft-qcadcam.desktop.
