Edit Main Menu not working

I have installed GOG Galaxy via bottles. It created a menu entry under "other" in the menu. I would like to move the menu entry to "games" but whenever I try to do so, the OK button does not do anything when creating a new menu entry in the Menu editor.

Here is the command:
flatpak run --command=bottles-cli com.usebottles.bottles run -p 'GOG Galaxy' -b 'Games' -- %u

Here is the terminal output:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/share/alacarte/Alacarte/ItemEditor.py", line 186, in on_response
self.save()
File "/usr/share/alacarte/Alacarte/ItemEditor.py", line 176, in save
util.fillKeyFile(self.keyfile, self.get_keyfile_edits())
File "/usr/share/alacarte/Alacarte/ItemEditor.py", line 234, in get_keyfile_edits
Icon=get_icon_string(self, self.builder.get_object('icon-image')),
File "/usr/share/alacarte/Alacarte/ItemEditor.py", line 58, in get_icon_string
filename = editor.icon_file
AttributeError: 'LauncherEditor' object has no attribute 'icon_file'

So it looks like its refusing to add because there is no icon file? Ideas?

I figured it out. You need to make sure to set an icon for every new item you attempt to make within the Main Menu Editor aka "alacarte" as the Menu Editor will not let you select "OK" without an Icon set. See screenshots.

Just posting this here for others to learn from my mistakes. I am still learning. It's fun.
