JavaFX Style Sheet with my custom component

Because my custom component doesn’t have a Mac look and feel (the rounded corners of the TextBox) and because I don’t want to change the code of my component, I decided to create a Mac Style Sheet.

Now, let us study the Mac style sheet and the code to use this style sheet

the Mac style sheet - mac.css

.searchTextBox {corner-radius: 25;padding-left: 10}

To have a rounded corners of the textbox, I use the CSS attribute corner-radius and to move the position of the input cursor (because of the rounded corners), I use the CSS attribute padding-left

To use this CSS just set the style sheets attribute of your Scene with the location of your CSS file.

    scene: Scene {
        stylesheets : ["{__DIR__}resources/mac.css"]

The code of the demo (the code of the custom component doesn’t change)

resources\mac.css

.searchTextBox {corner-radius: 25;padding-left: 10}
.searchTextBoxRed{corner-radius: 25;padding-left: 10;border-fill:#FF0000;}
