SceneBuilder is opening slow when you have Intelij open

[icyhoty2k]

When starting scenebuilder from intelij idea ,Right Click on fxml file in the projects view , then choose open in scene builder
it open really slow , and some times it does not open scenebuilder at all , you have to close intelij idea then scenebuilder open immediately

Ah, SceneBuilder is currently designed in a way, that there is only one running instance expected.
If one version of SceneBuilder is running, it prevents the other version from starting.

There are other issues around such as #346 and #369. So This is definitely something where is worked on.
I will try to prepare one or more PRs, which eventually shall enable to run multiple versions. Thats the simplest thing first, getting settings as per installation will become more complex.

What I have found so far is, that all SceneBuilder instances share the same system preferences (since SB 2.0) and also the same settings/application data directory. What is missing as of now, is the the version number available during Scene Builder application startup.

Well, i've got it working. Will prepare a PR this afternnoon and also will prepare a preliminary build so you can test it.
