Scenebuilder in Intellij Pathway Setup

IT student here.
Scenebuilder was working fine, until I tried to open a different .fxml from the one I was working on. Then Scenebuilder stopped working. Tried going back and opening the file I was working on fine previously, and that suddenly wouldn't open.
Looked on here and reddit for other solutions. People recommended going through IntelliJ "File> Settings> Languages & Frameworks> JavaFX" and fixing the Path to Scenebuilder. When I would do what I would think would fix it, it would spit a mirror image with different slashes. I took a picture of one of the results I got. I've tried flipping the slashes for the path, I've tried using the path that's the same as the file I'm trying to access, I've tried finding the scenebuilder file, but all I have can find is the installer, which makes no sense because I was just editing a different .fxml a few minutes ago.
Can anybody help me? I would like to be able to do my homework, but I'd also love to understand what's going on. I feel like a hot mess and a big dummy at the same time right now lol.
Example from my desktop
TIA!

Making a shape act like a connector and snap to another shape. Visio

I'm pretty new to Visio but I'm trying to figure how I could possible design a stencil to snap to a connector marker on another stencil/shape.
I have looked into actually editing the connector itself too see how its designed. I'm wondering If I could recreate the Endpoint on a single location for a shape stencil. Which would snap into place on to the designated shape, when a user drags it on to the worksheet.
Would anyone have any ideas or pointers on how I could achieve this?
I found my solution here.
http://visiozone.com/?p=298
Pretty much I had to take a 1D shape (A line) and Adjust the parameters of its boundary box inside the master shape, then group it too get it to act like a 2d shape. After, I could edit the group and add the shape I wanted then. Deleting the line and adjusting the endpoints.
Highly recommend checking the link out. I hope this helps anyone out there with this issue.
I'm not sure why its really difficult to find information on Visio. Being a 19 year old program. Haha.

VBA PPT AddEffects to Pictures Inconsistently Applies Effects

I am getting really frustrated. I have code that works, as in it literally does what it says it will do, however, it doesn't always correctly read my images on the slides as images. I even went so far as naming them all "Picture" and using it as a variable. It actually worked for a second but then 5 pictures in it stopped working again.
This is the code and it DOES work:
With shp.Fill.PictureEffects
Dim eff As PictureEffect
Set eff = .Insert(msoEffectSharpenSoften)
eff.EffectParameters(1).Value = 1
End With
Why will this block of code not work on all of my images? Even when it throws the error it WILL sharpen the image as intended, but then stop??? I do not understand the problem or what a possible fix might be. This is literally the last bit of my work process that I need to solve...
For the record, I have code that will adjust the Height, Width, and center the image perfectly on the slide with no issues whatsoever, code that will put images in a placeholder and then format text... but for some reason THIS block of code won't work...
I have also tried deleting the image, manually reuploading it using the Insert Picture function in the program and it still doesn't work??? Is it possible this has something to do with the fact I am using PowerPoint 2013?
I tested it a different way by changing the picture format, it seemed like it was working but it didn't. Whether I automate it, whether I insert picture, no matter what I do, whether it's in a pre positioned container or not, this line of code refuses to work. Why are my images, in both PNG and JPEG format not being accepted by PowerPoint VBA?

How to remove weird lines from model

After I deleted unnecessary edges I got these weird lines. So, how do I remove them?
It's not the first time I get these lines on my models, but I can't find any questions asking to solve this.
You could set up some loop cuts (CTRL+R) on that mesh, or try CTRL+T, this will triangulate the mesh, sometimes this can help in these kind of situation. ALT+J de-triangulates to make quads if you need it to make N-Gons.

filledcurve with terminal pdf looks bad

There is a beautiful script producing a rectangle with rounded corners here:
http://gnuplot-surprising.blogspot.de/2011/10/round-corner-rectangle-in-gnuplot.html
It works so far and I'm able to adapt this example to my needs.
The problem is that it does not work properly in case of pdf output and I have no idea why .. there seems to be a problem with pdf and filledcurve in a way, that the area is not properly filled. Viewing the pdf you can clearly see that the filling consists of stripes and in between them are white lines separating them. It looks really bad on screen and on paper.
Again: the problem only occurs if the script is adapted to pdf output!
I've been working on this all day and still no clue how to fix this.
Does anyone see a way out? Or is it an inherent problem of the way curves are filled?
