I have installed multiple terminals. I was able to launch all the terminals from app launcher except gnome-terminal.

What I have tried so far:

  • I followed the link: How can I change the default Terminal app?

    It changed default terminal to gnome-terminal (I verified in dconf-tools) but still I don't find gnome-terminal in app launcher.

  • I have binded shortcut key to open gnome-terminal. It's working.

  • I also tried the command sudo update-alternatives --config x-terminal-emulator to select available terminals.

  • Also there is no option to keep in dock.

My question:

How to launch gnome-terminal from app launcher and how to lock it to dock?

I think you question is similar to this one: Why don't certain GNOME apps show in Slingshot?

Have a look in the file in /usr/share/applications/gnome-terminal.desktop. It must have a OnlyShowIn entry. Remove it or add Pantheon there.
