Thanks for the report, however I am not able to reproduce the issue, could you please write more detailed steps how to reproduce it? Can you reproduce it repeatedly? Thanks.

I'm sorry, I hoped it would be a trival bug to find.

I am unable to reproduce the bug myself anymore either.

I created the project as standard Java application, then did a whole array of actions over time, and then wanted to add an FXML via the Wizard obtained after right-clicking a package and creating New File.

One difference I do notice between my version and the newly created working project is the following:
- In my project it was forcing the FXML to be under the Resources package, whereas in new projects it is under the source packages.
- In my project in the path to the file there was a <Project Resources> placeholder.

Thanks for the explanation. Since we are unable to reproduce the issue I am closing this as "works for me" for now. If you will be able to reproduce the problem, please reopen this issue with steps how to reproduce it. Thanks!
