Cloning DataFX project into netbeans-won't find javafx packages
959417Sep 1 2012 — edited Sep 1 2012Hi--
I've tried importing http://java.net/projects/datafx into Netbeans, but at first it tells me that it cannot find jfxrt.jar.
When I resolve the problem by pointing netbeans to jdk1.7.0_07.jdk, I get the following problem:
for every single java-fx import in the project, it tells me that "package javafx.application does not exist". This is surprising as it is able to find the javafx packages when I create a new project from scratch.
I'm at my wits' end and have been playing around with this for half a day. Any help appreciated.
Pics of settings for the project:

Edit:
I think I have found the error, but do not know how to fix it. The picture shows that Data FX is just a regular JAVA project, the project below it in the pic shows what a JavaFx project icon is supposed to look like in netbeans.

The project is cloned as a reular java project, not a javafx project. How do I tell Netbeans/Mercurial/whatever that I want to import it as a Java FX project? Alternatively change it to Java FX afterwards?

Edit:
Found it. Had to import every necessary .jar file by file, it was not enough to add the .jdk file they were located in even though netbeans okayed it and told me everything was swell.
Would delete this abomination of a post, but can't find the way to do it.
