Default project structure and run configuration for IntelliJ IDEA

Question

I downloaded IntelliJIDEA to code JavaFX applications.

For the first time, I opened a project and I had to add the library to File->Project Structure->Libraries and then edit the VM options by going to Run->Edit Configurations. I notice that the two steps I had done was modified for the current project only.

Then from the main menu, I added JavaFX library to Global Libraries and changed the VM options in application templates but still after opening new project, I have to add them manually again.

Is there any fix to this?

You can use File | New Projects Settings menu to customize the defaults.

It's also possible to save your project as template: Tools | Save Project as Template.
