I'm looking at learning JavaFX.

I've tried setting Eclipse to develop a small app and I've downloaded the Eclipse plugin.

Eclipse JavaFX plugin

BUT... it just seems, well, flakey.

So I have 3 questions...

1: Is there a better plugin?

2: Or is there some great set of tutorials out there that I'm missing?

3: finally, is it meant to be easy to call Java code from FX? I'm stuggling, it there a good example somewhere?

On questions 1 & 2, Eclipse underlines code in red that just shouln't be. For example.. see this image... alt text

Why does it underline bit of imports in red?

I know this is little of an open ended question. So I guess my main question is this...

Is my experiance of JavaFX and Eclipse the best I can hope for? Or am I missing something ? (and I'm not looking for a Yes/No response) :-)

Just looking for a discussion on how best to learn/develop JavaFx.
