Description Lou Dasaro 2013-08-31 02:25:38 UTC 
Test suite: Activating JavaFX2 support

    Activating by opening JavaFX2 Project

    Start IDE with fresh userdir.
    Invoke File | Open Project... from main menu. "Open Project" wizard shows up.
    Browse to some previously created JavaFX2 project, select it and push Open Project button. 

    EXPECTED RESULT: Project is opened and JavaSE with JavaFX support are activated. Verify in Plugins manager. 

ACTUAL RESULT: Project is opened and JavaSE support is added BUT NOT JavaFX (according to Plugins manager).

Because I can still build and run JavaFX programs, It seems possible that JavaFX support was indeed activated, but that Plugin Manager was not notified and incorrectly displays that the feature is not activated. 

A similar bug occurs if you de-activate Java SE, restart the IDE and try to open a JavaFX project - the program will build and run but Plugin Manager will display both Java SE and JavaFX as "deactivated"

Workaround: Activate JavaFX in Plugin Manager. This will also cause Java SE to be activated, if it is not already active.
