Max Rydahl Andersen commented on JBIDE-18518:
---------------------------------------------

does:

{code}
yum install java-1.7.0-oracle-javafx
{code}

not work ?

if no, then yeah we should document the full install, if yes then we should just document that.

If you want PR's can be made on it here: https://github.com/jbosstools/jbosstools-website/blob/master/documentation/faq/visualeditor.adoc

> If a RHEL user installs Oracle Java 1.7 through `yum install` and not from a direct download from Oracle, they cannot select JavaFx as the browser engine
> The issue is that if a RHEL user installs these packages:
> java-1.7.0-oracle-1.7.0
> java-1.7.0-oracle-devel-1.7.0
> It may appear as though the full JDK has been installed as the "devel" package installs javac - however, the JavaFx libraries are not installed. As a result, the user cannot specify JavaFx as the browser engine in the BrowserSim preferences. (See attached screenshot.)
