Hi,

Create the alias in your regular way, copy it using cmd-c, navigate to the 
Desktop and press cmd-v to paste it to the Desktop.

Later...

Okay, I’ve managed to do this a few times, but it’s always seemed to be a 
hit-and-miss proposition. I’d like to have an alias to a file show on my 
Desktop so I can quickly open it. Creating the alias is simple. Finding where 
to paste it is not.
