seconds has private access to java time duration

I have checked google and all the other parts, they say sth about my class is declaring right.... the problem is that the Duration.second doens't work here, I tried Duration.ofsecods() remain fatal.....

mTimeline.getKeyFrames().add(new KeyFrame(Duration.seconds(1), e ->{
            mCurrentAttempt.tick();
            setTimerText(mCurrentAttempt.getmRemainingSeconds());
        }));

Ok so those who encounter this problem, definitely you well cause the syntax is different now, and I fixed it by observing the libraries. Should change to 

mTimeline.getKeyFrames().add(new KeyFrame(javafx.util.Duration.seconds(1), e ->{
            mCurrentAttempt.tick();
            setTimerText(mCurrentAttempt.getmRemainingSeconds());

        }));

I think you might wanna update this code as well :)

Hi Chien-wei Huang !

Looks like you just have a bad import of Duration make sure you choose the javafx.util version!

Thanks for pointing this out!
