I have a strong suspicion that the image files are not actually in the project, instead, they are somewhere outside of it. I’m happy to spend time investigating the code, though let’s just note that all this has nothing at all to do with this thread — a few basic Java tutorials should be followed,

Re: Statement of disappointment

Netbeans gives a warning to not try and change the code it generates and says that it will change it back the next time I run or build the file. Someone did suggest loading my project into github. I have heard of github but have no idea of how to use it or load stuff into it. I guess this maili

Re: Statement of disappointment

I have been doing some digging around and the first line where an image is called is the line identified as giving the error. However, this is part of the code generated by Netbeans when I created the panel using the design feature in Netbeans. In other words, I cannot alter it! Netbeans knows

Re: Statement of disappointment

I agree.  I have been using NetBeans since it was called Forte and both it and Java were owned and managed by Sun.  I think I was up to version 8.2 when management switched to Apache and a LOT of things changed.  At the same time, almost all of the Swing apps I had produced with earlier version

We'd be happy to help. Maybe one way would be to work on the code together, i.e., if you have/create an account (assuming you don't have one yet) on GitHub ( https://github.com/) and then put your whole application there, others (me for sure) will be happy to take a look at it. Gj On Mon, Mar 9,

For what it's worth, I've had problems switching from 8 to 11, too. But they've been minor glitches. But I barely know JavaFX and I don't use it at all, I've been quite satisfied with AWT/Swing for my purposes. I've used Eclipse and found it lacking. IntelliJ's good, but I don't need an IDE to auto

Paul, many of us "feel your pain" with what Oracle did to JavaFX. But all is not lost. Take a look here: http://netbeans.apache.org/kb/docs/java/ Scroll down to the JavaFX section and click on the first item. You will see how completely easy it is to develop JavaFX with Netbeans and Maven. Of

Re: Statement of disappointment

I have to admit I'm on the point of giving up with Netbeans 11. Programs that used to compile quite happily with V8 no longer compile. I am using images in a subdirectory and the V11 compiler cannot find them so I get null exceptions and it sulks. Judi On 09/03/2020 15:52, Chris Olsen wrote:

Indeed, I think the approach Emilian suggests is the way to go. And, indeed, if you don't want to or have the time to move to Maven of Gradle, then a lot of modern options start closing off to you. But, on a different level, for a lot of users of NetBeans, the chickens have come home to roost: a f

Go and pick Azul Zulu' JDK FX package which comes bundles with JavaFX: https://www.azul.com/downloads/zulu-community/?&architecture=x86-64-bit&package=jdk-fx I used it for an older Platform app where I don't feel like configuring the FX mumbo jumbo. I doubt anybody can make a magic transition too
