Question

Can anyone please tell me where I can find the path to the correct files for Scene Builder on Ubuntu to get it linked in my preferences with Eclipse IDE.

Answer 1

if you installed Scene builder through ubuntu Software Center then the path should be "/opt/SceneBuilder/"

Answer 2

1. Start Scene Builder

2. Show the path of the executable by running the following command in terminal

   ps aux | grep Scene

Output:
user 9386 9.2 3.0 5422044 245152 ? Sl 11:38 0:12 /opt/SceneBuilder/SceneBuilder
user 9525 0.0 0.0 15800 932 pts/2 S+ 11:40 0:00 grep --color=auto Scene

The last string in the first line of the output is the path of the executable. This should work regardless of how you installed Scene Builder (Ubuntu Software Center, Jar, RPM or DEB package).

I am on Ubuntu 22.04 LTS and SB v. 21. ps aux | grep Scene doesn't tell me where the SB launcher is. The way I found it is by doing a file string search ("scenebuilder") on the whole computer, i.e. the "/" directory. Then worked my way through files (not directories) listed in a /bin folder until I found the one that launched SB. – Overact

June 2024. /var/lib/flatpak/exports/bin is the folder and you have to append the launcher file name to the path, otherwise IntelliJ JavaFX won't do anything. So it's /var/lib/flatpak/exports/bin/com.gluonhq.SceneBuilder that you put in the Path to SceneBuilder field – Overact
