Description:

netbeans.desktop should have some changes inside its text

[Desktop Entry]
Encoding=UTF-8
Type=Application
Name=NetBeans
Comment=IDE for Java, HTML5, PHP, Groovy, C and C++
Exec=netbeans %f
Icon=netbeans
Terminal=false
StartupNotify=true
Categories=Development;WebDevelopment;IDE;
StartupWMClass=NetBeans IDE 8.1

so it is necessary to change:
StartupNotify=false ==>> true
Categories=Application;Development; ==>> Categories=Development;WebDevelopment;IDE;
Exec=netbeans ==>> Exec=netbeans %f

Making all the changes, except the one for Categories. Some projects are moving away from .desktop file categories (https://blogs.gnome.org/mclasen/2014/03/17/app-folder-configuration/), and I consider them less important. Does your menu look visibly better when using Development;WebDevelopment;IDE; instead of Application;Development;?
