B4J Question JavaFX CSS

[LucaMs]

I read something about CSS listlessly few thousand years ago, so I only know their purpose.

Now, to use B4J, they are practically necessary.

I suppose JavaFX CSS is an implementation of CSS, since I found a small utility that creates CSS code but this code does not work when copied as it is.

Forgive my verbosity:

how can I get the bold, for example?

From this guide: JavaFX CSS Reference Guide:

<font-weight> The font's weight, using the following syntax:
[ normal | bold | bolder | lighter | 100 | 200 | 300 | 400 | 500 | 600 | 700 | 800 | 900 ]
...
-fx-font-size <font-size> inherit
-fx-font-weight <font-weight> inherit

I tried using both:

mlblTitle.Style = "-fx-font-weight:bold"

mlblTitle.Style = "-fx-font-weight: bold"

they do not work (but

mlblTitle.Style = "-fx-font-size:18"

works fine)

How should I behave, generally in B4J, with CSS?

Thank you in advance

mlblTitle.Style="-fx-font-weight:bold;"

works for me with or without the trailing ';'

if you are adding more than 1 style using the style method, they need to be added at the same time, or only the last one will take effect i.e.

mlblTitle.Style="-fx-font-weight:bold;-fx-font-size:18;"

It is easier and more powerful to use an external sheet:
Using external CSS file to style a ToggleButton

Many thanks.

Yes, my intention is to use external files, but creating them "manually" ... I might end up in a mental hospital!

I will try again using some tools.

Thanks again
