abien: Happened during calling the JavaFX wizard for the creation of a presenter

GUEST: I have installed JDK 8 with JavaFX to use SceneBuilder. I have set up SceneBuilder Path and wanted to create an empty FXML file, but when i click on finish in the wizard it tells me "called DataObject.find on null". Regardless of the CheckBox "Use Java Controller" or "Use Cascading Stylesheets" or the package i select in which it should be created.

Just ended up here while searching this error in Google.  Exact same details as the original poster while creating an Empty FXML via the wizard.  For what it's worth I created a FXML Main Class before attempting to create the Empty FXML.

Took recent update to FX tonight hoping it would fix the issue.  No dice.  Left creating FXML from scratch in Netbeans in existing projects at least.

Comment 6 Lou Dasaro 2014-08-13 22:01:56 UTC

I am unable to duplicate this error using the latest 8.0.1 release candidate and JDK 1.8.0_20, or 1.8.0_11 (or 1.7.0_67). NetBeans IDE 8.0.1 Release Candidate passed both sanity and full testing with no errors except Bug 242235.

If you can reproduce this error, please reopen this bug with my apologies, and copy your Help->About information here, along with specific steps to reproduce. Thank you.
