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.

How do I create a custom launcher in Cairo Dock for Aptanan Studio?

Aptana Studio 3 doesn't have a launcher icon

sudo gnome-desktop-item-edit /usr/share/applications/ --create-new

to create a launcher , then drag and drop it into cairo dock

What I just found that works is dragging the AptanaStudio3.desktop file from wherever you have it stored right onto Cairo Dock. Works like a charm!

I just created a custom launcher and adding the path of aptana /opt/aptana folder/AptanaStudio3 in the "command on click"
