Netbeans, Darcula not working - java

I have the following problem with me IDE.
I installed netbeans and proper plugin to it which is called darcula. It should change the color of the whole editor, toolbars and so on. Surprisingly it changes only the view of the place of code edition. Does annybody has some solution to it.
The version of netbeans is 8.2 and OS is Ubuntu 16.04.

You should go to Tools -> Options -> Appearance -> Look and feel and select preferred look and feel: Darcula option from the dropdown. Restart the IDE and it should work

JavaFx not showing up in preferences window

I am trying to work with JavaFx for the first time . Right now, I cannot see the option for JavaFx in my preferences window (Eclipse -> Preferences -> JavaFx?) as shown here:
Preferences Window.
I have Java 1.8.0. installed on my mac.
Eclipse itself does not know anything about JavaFX and in fact it does not have to because a JavaFX program is nothing but a plain Java program.
In order to get some additional tooling you can however install this plugin. e(fx)clipse This is helpfull but not necessary to write a JavaFX program in Eclipse.
Sometimes you may need to manually look up the repository.
I used this walkthrough to do it Install efxclipse into eclipse
The actual repository is here (as of Feb 24,2020): http://download.eclipse.org/efxclipse/updates-released/3.0.0/site
You will need to restart your Eclipse instance.

Can't create java application project in netbeans8.1.(ubuntu)

I am new to NetBeans and I can't create a "Java Application" project, like shown in all tutorials. I can only create a Java Free-Form Project, but this requires a build script, which I don't have either.
Do I have to download a plugin for it and if so which plugin? Or did I download the wrong NetBeans version?
I am using ubuntu version 15 and NetBeans IDE 8.1.

Just make sure you have JDK installed on your system. (I am pretty sure, it would be as Netbeans doesn't install if JDK is not found on your machine, but just to be sure about it). Also, You might have missed to select Java in Select Languages during installation.
To activate a feature manually:
Open the Tools > Plugins menu
Go to the Installed tab.
Select and activate the feature you need.
Return to the New Project dialog.

Found the plugin:
It was in the the "Ant" or the "Ant 1.9.4. Documentation 1.9.4" or Mobility plugin. I downloaded those 3 at the same time, but If I have to guess it was the Mobility plugin.
Not sure if this will help you. I've been working on Windows. I have Netbeans 8.1 and JDK 8 (version 1.8.0.73). When I first started with Netbeans and tried to create my first new Project it opened the New Project window with the Categories portion of the new Project screen focused on the Samples section. I also thought I couldn't create the type of project I wanted to create. If this is what is happening to you, see if you can scroll up in the Categories box. If you can, you should find Java at the top. If you click that, you should then be able to select Java Application in the Projects part of the window.

Missing Preview and designer button with the iReport plugin in Netbeans

I have created my first iReport jrxml file by using the iReport plugin in NetBeans but there is missing preview and designer button.
Why does this happen?
Your designer preview is not available because the ireports netbeans plugin has not been added properly.
you can download is here : http://plugins.netbeans.org/plugin/4425/ireport
then go to netbeans -> tools -> plugins -> downloaded -> Add plugins...
and select the downloaded plugin and go through the wizard
I also had the same issue. I'm using Netbeans 8.0.1 version and I firstly downloaded and installed iReport 5.6 from sourceforge. But when I tried to create the report I also noticed that I 'm having only the xml. Preview and Design buttons were not there.
So then I remove the installed plugins (.nbm files) and downloaded this from Netbeans and reinstalled the plugin.
Then it worked perfectly for me. So my thought is, your plugin might missing some files.. so better if you can remove that and re-download the plugin from here.
If you want to preview the report then right click on 'opened tab' (example: if you want to see the preview of DayReport.jrxml then open it and right click on that tab) and select the editor menu, then you can preview, designer or see the xml of your report
i have also faced that probleam , because i have netbeans 7.4 and my ireport plugin vergion was different , so i uninstall old plug in and install same version of my netbeans 7.4 .. and now it is showing design , pervious etc

Adding SWT nature to eclipse project

I have exported a SWT project from eclipse under Linux and tried to import it under Windows. So far everything works fine except that I seem to have lost the "SWT nature" of the project. Running the project with the SWT gui works fine but when I try to edit the GUI source, I don't have the Source/Design/Bindings tabs below my source window and cannot do any graphical editing. Does anyone know how to fix this?
I guess you are using WindowBuilder. If this is the case, use the following:
Right click class file → Open With → WindowBuilder Editor
