Hi All,

I would like to create a Java FX Project Template (that works) which shows the same wizard as the original 'New Project' (I miss here several options).

I managed to create a Java FX Project Template following the official Howto,
but the resulting Wizard does not show all the options the original wizard for 'New Project/Java FX Application' has. I miss most of all the 'Create 
Application Class' option. I guess I would need to alter the WizardIterator 
so that the original 'Java FX Application' wizard appear, but I did not 
manage (see below) to figure it out how to.

What I did so far:

a)  search on the internet and found only the following - loosely related - articles which did not answer my question:

1) Hack Your Own Custom NetBeans Project Templates
https://dzone.com/articles/hack-your-own-custom-project-t
-> https://platform.netbeans.org/tutorials/60/nbm-projectsamples.html

the above description is for NetBeans v6, I did not manage to adapt to my case with
NetBeans v8.2 (with JDK 1.8 ).

2) Creating a Better Java Class Wizard
https://blogs.oracle.com/geertjan/entry/creating_a_better_java_class

here again it speaks about layout.xml, which I do not have (maybe again some
changed API issue)

b) ask on [email protected]
no answer after more than a week.

Any help would be appreciated,
