reStructuredText Preview empty

Hallo, since phpStorm 2018.x opened reStructuredText files have a preview window. But it keeps empty. What is needed to make it work? I installed JDK for JavaFX and tried to find Swing. Without success. Those are the infos given in:

File | Settings | Languages & Frameworks | ReStructured Text

Would be very nice to get this work.

Greetings.

I was wondering if preview pane is empty on every reStructuredText file you are trying to open.

Anyway, would it be possible to share one of the affected files?

For example just this:

Section Header

Subsection Header

So, does someone have clue how to get the preview work? Its probably only some kind of an external dependency or library.

As far as I can see, reST preview has been introduced in 2018.2, but only in PyCharm: https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/PY-8472

It's not even available for the Python plugin for IntelliJ: https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/PY-31251

It seems that the preview pane showed in PhpStorm is a bug, as it wasn't supposed to be shown.

Could you please submit a request to have the reStructuredText plugin updated instead of the current solution?

Thank you!

Will it be possible to make the preview for reStructuredText available in PhpStorm as well?
