I'm currently working on javaFx project using scene builder & Netbeans.I removed tabPane with all nodes from my fxml file and i closed sceneBuilder.I tried to recover last modifications but i could not.Any one have some tricks using scene builder or Netbeans or other way to recover last modifications?
In netbeans, you can try to open the fxml (right click | edit) and then in main menu: View | Editors | History.
But I'm not sure if the history is available if you deleted it in sceneBuilder.
The only way to recover is ctrl + z. If that doesn't work, you have no other choice other than redesigning your layout from scratch.

I have copied my src package structure from eclipse to intellij and it makes this structure within src folder:
How do I make it dz1.drugi so I can one click expand all to my classes?
Another question is how to select default project folder as it is "workspace" at \Users\{Name} for eclipse. Right now, when I create new project like this:
it saves it without workspace (or projects folder) at \Users\{Name}.
Click on the cog icon at the top-right of the explorer view, and check the "Flatten packages" option.
That said, If you get used to keyboard shortcuts top open classes and files, and navigate through recently opened files, you'll quickly see that you'll amost never use the explorer view anymore.
Project view has an option to compact empty middle packages, enable it. You can also use Flatten packages option. Actually, your question is a duplicate of this one.
IntelliJ IDEA remembers the last location you've used when creating a new project. Once you want to create another project, the location one level upper of the previous project directory would be suggested. So, create a project in C:\Users\someuser\workspace\myproject1 and IDE will suggest C:\Users\someuser\workspace\myproject2 for your new myproject2.
Using multiple screens I normally place multiple classes (files) in different screens, this helps me a lot while refactoring, checking tests and comparing changes.
Visual Studio Code does not allow me to drag a tab outside the window and view it in (for example) another monitor.
I checked the documentation and plugins, but the only way I found, is to open two windows, pointing to the same project (folder) and put those in different screens.
I don't like this solution, that causes also some problem when I watch code changes using TypeScript.
Any suggestion?
I use Windows 10, latest version of VSCode.
A solution is to press CTRL+K and after releasing CTRL, press O.
This will open the current file in a new window.
There are few things I don't like about this solution:
- Drag and Drop does not work
- Create a new instance of VS Code resulting in (for me) 180MB of ram used
- To open the file it takes to me few seconds (quite slow)
- The file remains open in the original window as well
Update 20/03/2019:
There is a feature request you can track here:
https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode/issues/10121
And an explanation about why this is difficult to implement here:

Update 20/03/2019:
Another important side effect highlighted by #Mär is that:
the IntelliSense fails to establish references it had when the file
was opened in the window, where the entire project is opened
The easy way but with the same drawbacks. More ram and resources will be used. Is to wrap your project in a folder.
It's the best possible thing. As by now!
=> Duplicate the workspace.
Open the command pannel ctrl+shift+p or F1.
Then write dupl
You'll get that
That's it.
More
If you want to add more folder to the working space.
=> go to File then Add Folder To Workspace
You can add as many as you like.
Also better more
You can open a new window (ex: ctrl+n)
And then go File > Add Folder To Workspace.
And start adding folders to your new Workspace. You can add any folder, that is already open or not. That's too way great. You can have all the needed folders for example in the second screen.
A little hack I used is to just stretch the editor window to fill both screens and split the view pane between the monitors such that both screens show just one open file.
This is a cheap hack that works without opening multiple instances of VSC.
It may not be the proper solution, but it works without eating up all my system memory.
I found the following way to work on multiple monitors (important: they must be the same size and resolution):
open a visual studio in windowed mode on the 1st monitor (in my case it is a left monitor)
move the window to the (left) top corner
stretch window to the 2nd monitor (right) bottom corner
split screen by clicking “split editor” several times
move the code sections separator to the edge between the monitors
This is old qestion, but such way can be useful for someone. It is not very convenient, but it works. The solution may have already appeared in the VS itself, but I didn't find it.
Visual Studio Code does not allow me to drag a tab outside the window and view it in (for example) another monitor
Actually, VSCode 1.57 (May 2021, 4 years later) will propose something close:
Improved editor drag and drop across windows
Support for dragging editors to other windows was improved in this release. You can now drag diff editors, custom editors and the entire editor group to another window to open the editors there.
My solution was to use Remote-ssh to connect to self and open in another window. This does take extra resources. But I find this comfortable as I don't need to create additional workspace.
For me on Ubuntu the solution was to create a project folder symlink and ope it in a new window (as it won't open the same folder in another window)
I'm facing a wierd problem. My eclipse, has a google signin button which is occupying some of the space which I do not want to happen. Initially it had "Sign-in to Google" text along with it. I've followed some blog post and set accordingly to show just the icon (I don't remember that blog post link).
But now, the icon is getting replicating .. it is being shown 12 times. It is actually creating childs :P
I've gone through all the options present in Customize Perspective menu, none of them had this button listed. Can someone help me in removing that google sign button from my perspective? One possible suspect is- my eclipse crashes when I suspend and wakeup my machine.
You can use the Window > Reset Perspective... menu command to reset the perspective to its default state, which might eliminate that toolbar and buttons. If that fails, I would create a new workspace and import the projects into it using File > Import > Existing Projects into Workspace.
If you want to try to salvage your existing workspace, it's possible to do so my manually editing Eclipse's internal file that stores your Workbench layout, but it's a bit tricky. Here are the steps I've followed to eliminate a similar repeated toolbar item:
Exit Eclipse.
Find the Workbench layout file, it's path is <workbench>\.metadata\.plugins\org.eclipse.e4.workbench\workbench.xmi. Make a backup of this file before you touch it - this is essential because it's easy to corrupt the file if you change the wrong things.
Open the file in your favorite XML-aware editor - most packages of Eclipse include the XML editor that works just fine1, but be aware that if you use Eclipse to edit the file you can't have Eclipse open on the workspace that contains the workbench.xmi you want to edit.
Find the section of <trimBars> nodes in the XML; from there you have to determine which <trimBars> node you need to edit. In your case it looks like a vertical one, probably with a side="Right" attribute.
Under the correct <trimBars> node you'll find multiple <chlidren> nodes, each with an elementId attribute that should help you identify it; you're looking for <children> nodes that are identified as something related to the Google plugin.
Delete the <children> nodes that seem related to the unwanted toolbar buttons. In your case, it appears that there is an entire toolbar that you might want to eliminate, so you might want to delete the entire containing <trimBars> node.
Save the file and start Eclipse on that workspace.
1Some packages of Eclipse include EMF tools that will open it in a special XMI editor that does not provide a view of the source, only a structural tree view. Depending on how you like to work with XML, this might be easier than editing raw XML.
This is not a perspective but a view. You can hover over that bar with the buttons and click Alt+Shift+F1 to check where this View comes from. Then you can either disable/uninstall the contributing feature (Help -> Installation Details) or check where the feature came from.
If it comes from the IDE, you can open a bug for it. If it is contributed from a third party plugin, contact the developers of that plugin.
There is an eclipse bug concerning duplicate view toolbar buttons in Luna that has recently closed as well. Maybe this solves your problem as well.
Edit: Taken from this bug:
root cause is that in Luna 4.4M5 WorkbenchWindowControlContribution.createControl is called twice, the
first time with a null value for
WorkbenchWindowControlContribution.getWorkbenchWindow() while it is
still being created. This is related to what has been reported here
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=427452
second cause is that my createControl(Composite parent) method was calling PlatformUI.getWorkbench().getActiveWorkbenchWindow() instead
of WorkbenchWindowControlContribution.getWorkbenchWindow(). This
resulted in an attempt to create a new Workbench Window, which
recursively calls createControl() again. This has already been
reported here https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=366708
In Eclipse, if I change a file programmatically, and it is open in a text editor, it doesn't always reload, not even when refreshing the resource programmatically. How can I forcibly reload the text editor from code so that it show the changed file contents?
In your project explorer or navigator, you can right-click on the file that's currently open and select refresh. This has always worked for me, even when editing files with several programs. Make sure to click the file itself, not parent objects like packages or folders or projects.
Edit
Refreshing programmatically? I would look into an Eclipse scripting tool:
http://eclipse-shell.sourceforge.net/
I guess there was another one called Monkey, but it doesn't appear to be maintained.
I don't know of any possibility to programmatically reload the file.
Some editors (e.g. GMF editors) look for changes in the underlying files, and refresh themselves, but this is not required at all.
I don't think that a forced reload is an option implemented globally, as in some cases there could be some merging steps involved that can be quite erroneous.
My ideas to solve this:
Have a specific editor that refreshes its content when the used resource changes (this can be timeconsuming);
Or close the editors of the file and reopen them (this is ugly in the eye of the user).
Since the Luna release of eclipse there's no need to reload files with F5/manual Refresh.
Really nice, especially as there was a bug with the F5 key binding.
I feel dumb asking this question, but I can't find solution to this myself.
When I open several files in editor and switch between them, I have problem finding currently opened file in project or files tree.
I used Eclipse before and every time I changed a tab with file, the project tree set focus for the same file. Is there a way to do something like this in NetBeans?
Just thought of adding what ax said:
The keyboard shortcuts in Windows are:
Select in Projects : Ctrl+Shift+1
Select in Files : Ctrl+Shift+2
The keyboard shortcuts in OS X are:
Select in Projects : CMD+Shift+1
Select in Files : CMD+Shift+2
As described in NetBeans "link with editor" feature, if you want the link to be permanent or persistent, use View | Synchronize Editor with Views. (In NetBeans >= 6.7.1, at least.)
from http://forums.netbeans.org/topic3732.html :
You can do this from the navigate menu, I believe. There are entries for
going to the file in the project tab or the file tab. I didn't see an
option that allows you to do this automatically, like there is in
Eclipse, but this menu entry allows you to do it upon request.
[edit]: also working: in the file > right mouse button > select in > projects | files | classes | favourites
[edit 2]: http://forums.netbeans.org/topic8420.html : This feature is not available till NetBeans IDE 6.5. This feature is added in the new version and may be available in NetBeans IDE 7.0M1 and after and you can find it in the View Menu.
