I installed Cisco Packet Tracer 7.0 on Ubuntu 18.04 but I don't have it displayed in Activities so I have to start it from Terminal every time. How can I make shortcut of Packet Tracer to Activities so I can start it from there?

You can create a custom .desktop launcher for Cisco Packet Tracer. To do that create a text file, say packet-tracer.desktop in ~/.local/share/applications/ directory. You can do this by running the following command in Terminal
touch ~/.local/share/applications/packet-tracer.desktop
Open the file with the text editor by running
gedit ~/.local/share/applications/packet-tracer.desktop
Add something like the following to the file and save the file.
[Desktop Entry]
Comment=Launch Cisco Packet Tracer
Terminal=false
Name=Cisco Packet Tracer
Exec=command-to-launch-packet-tracer
Type=Application
Icon=/full/path/to/your/preferred/icon-image
NoDisplay=false
