Java FX tab
Use this tab to specify the settings for packaging your JavaFX application or application preloader.
The settings depend on the artifact type (JavaFx Application or JavaFx Preloader).
JavaFx Application settings
Item | Description |
---|---|
Application class |
Specify the (qualified) application main class name.
Normally, this is the class that extends the javafx.application.Application class and
contains the main() method.
Type the name of the class in the field, or click (Shift+Enter) and select the class in the Choose Application Class dialog that opens. |
Title |
Specify the application title.
In technical terms, this is the information for the <title> element in
the corresponding deployment descriptor JNLP file.
If not specified, the title |
Vendor |

(i.e. the information for the <vendor> element in the JNLP file).
If not specified, the text |
Description |
Type a brief description of the application

If not specified, the text |
Width | Specify the width of the application window in pixels. This parameter is used mainly by applications embedded in a Web page. |
Height | Specify the height of the application window in pixels. This parameter is used mainly by applications embedded in a Web page. |
HTML Parameters |
You may want to pass dynamic parameters to the application that runs in the Web Start or embedded in browser modes from the corresponding HTML page.
In that case, you should create a .properties file and specify the necessary set of named parameters in that file.
Then you should specify the path to the .properties file in this field.
You can type the path, or click (Shift+Enter) and select the file in the dialog that opens. |
Application Parameters |
You may want to pass named and unnamed parameters to the application.
In that case, you should create a .properties file and specify the necessary parameters in that file.

You can type the path, or click (Shift+Enter) and select the file in the dialog that opens.

Convert css to bin | Select this check box if you want your application CSS file to be converted into binary format. (This may improve the application performance, especially for "large" CSS files.) |
Enable signing |
Select this check box if you want the application package to be digitally signed.
IntelliJ IDEA can generate a key and the corresponding self-signed certificate, or an existing key may be used to sign the package. To select which way of signing should be used, click Edit Certificates. Then, in the Choose Certificate dialog that opens, select:
