Activate JavaFX in already existing netbeans project - netbeans

I have an already existing netbeans project and i would like to have the possibility to add javaFX files from the netbeans menu. Is there any way to active JavaFx on an already existing project?

Javafx is always available for any project even a swing application. For integration of the two see this : https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/javafx/interoperability-tutorial/swing-fx-interoperability.htm

How can I use fxml in Eclipse?

I was wondering about using fxml in eclipse.
I watched a Video about JavaFX where the Creator handles the UI with a fxml File(He uses Eclipse too).
But my Eclipse doesnt recognize that I use fxml(Maybe doesnt have fxml?).
Is there any way I can add fxml to eclipse?
Screenshot
You can also get the e(fx)clipse plugin (which allows you to create fxmls) by opening Eclipse, clicking Help, scrolling down to the Eclipse Marketplace, and searching e(fx)clipse. Install, and then just restart Eclipse. To create a new JavaFX project, go to File->New->Project...->JavaFX->JavaFX Project, and you should be good to go (these instructions are based on using Eclipse Neon).

NetBeans 8.0.2 missing Java Desktop Application

I recently installed latest version of NetBeans and when I tried to make a new project type "Java Desktop Application" it won't appear in Java category.
Please help?
I've installed this plugin:
Java Swing Framework Library
JDK Project for Netbeans
Even I installed all of java plugins. But no luck!
By Java Desktop Application you may be referring the "Swing Application Framework" and that was halted by Sun Microsystems before Java 7 around year 2009 end.
For developing Desktop Applications using Java in NetBeans you have multiple options as follows:
Using Matisse UI Builder
The Matisse UI builder is available in NetBeans and you can create JFrame and JDialog classes in your application which can be used as your UI in any Java application. This approach needs a lot of boilerplate code to be written for creating windows, menus and dialog boxes. The next option is better if you want a professional cross platform Java Desktop Application
Using NetBeans Platform as base of your application
NetBeans IDE is built on the top of NetBeans Platform and you can also use the NetBeans Platform to build your own Desktop application with many conventional features out of the box coming from the NetBeans Platform. The NetBeans IDE comes with NetBeans Modules project types where you can choose the "NetBeans Platform Applciation: project type to create a desktop application. There are lot of tutorials and help available for the NetBeans platform on NetBeans users list and platform mailing list.
If you are still looking for the answer, or if anyone out there who want help, then here is an option. I think you want the drag and drop option, right? Here you go.
Just Start new project as Java and Java Application as shown below:
And then give any name to your project, like helloworld as shown below:
After you click finish button, the helloworld package will be opened. Now go to the left (mostly) or right side of the screen there is a list of projects. Go to your project and right-click on Source Packages -> New -> Other as shown below:
Now another window opens, and select Swing GUI Forms from Categories and JFrame Form from File Types, then Next and give the name and location for the class.
Now the form should appear on the window. You can now go back to source code and go forth to Design as you want. Have a nice coding.

How to create an IDE extension with eclipse 4?

I'm trying to learn the new application model thingy in Eclipse 4, coming from the previous 3.x world. One thing that is unclear to me is...How to make a Plug-in project like the plain old Plug-in project in 3.x version?
I'm asking because when I try to create a new Eclipse 4 project:
File -> New -> Other -> Eclipse 4 -> Eclipse 4 Application Project and fill the necessary fields, I get a project that if I right click in the .product file and run it, always get a RCP application.
I tried comparing an old 3.x plugin.xml file from a Plug-in 3.x project with a Eclipse 4 plugin.xml project and I can't see any difference that indicates that is going to be a RCP instead of an IDE extension...
I guess I can go with creating a 3.x Plug-in project, but I keep wondering why I can't simply develop IDE extensions using the new Eclipse 4 application model (which I kinda like...)
What I'm missing here? Any ideas? Is it not possible (yet) to develop IDE extensions using Eclipse 4?
Thanks!
You can use the normal New Plug-in Project to create a plug-in for Eclipse E4. Be sure not to select the 'This plug-in will make contributions to the UI' check box as that will introduce Eclipse 3 dependencies.
Use 'New / Eclipse 4 / New Model Fragment' if you want to add an Eclipse 4 model fragment to the plug-in.
