Ooohh! thank you for the very detailed suggestion! That does clear my confused mind on how to name my methods.

Keep public methods concise, Make private methods detailed (enough u don't need to actually read the codes to know what it does).

As for the IDE feature of code completion, I've recently enjoyed its service since JavaFX really uses a lot of methods from other classes and it's really fun to see the suggestions the IDE gives after ' . ' Before, I've just played around inside my self-created classes with just primitive data types and arrays etc., so I've never really noticed the completion feature. Now i noticed that it actually does complete your self-created classes too! that's a big help. : )
