Michelle Murray commented on JBDS-2672:
---------------------------------------
[~nickboldt], clear as mud! But your rewording misses that all is fine on Linux distros
and only OS X and Microsoft Windows have issues. I know it needs to be short, but how
about (slightly reworded from the new installation guide):
"The visual editing and preview components of the Visual Page Editor do not work in
the 64-bit version of JBoss Developer Studio on OS X and Microsoft Windows operating
systems. To work around this restriction, you must install a 32-bit version of JBoss
Developer Studio with a 32-bit Java developer kit on 64-bit OS X and Microsoft Windows
operating systems."
So stating the issue and which users are affected and then clearly stating the
workaround.
Hope that helps, but feel free to reword further.
Change 64-bit Warning on Early Access

The Visual Page Editor does not run on 64-bit Windows or Mac. While the source editor
does work, visual editing & preview do not. If you require this, run the installer
with a 32-bit JDK.

Making readers believe that we do not run on 64-bit OS. The real issue is 64-bit JVMs.
A 32-bit JVM on a 64-bit OS is great.
So, a rewording attempt:
{quote}
The Visual Page Editor does not provide visual editing nor preview when run on a 64-bit
JVM. However, it does provide visual editing when used on a 32-bit JVM even on a 64-bit
Windows or Mac OS X.
