Interface StyleableProperty<T>

All Superinterfaces:

All Known Implementing Classes:

SimpleStyleableBooleanProperty, SimpleStyleableDoubleProperty, SimpleStyleableFloatProperty, SimpleStyleableIntegerProperty, SimpleStyleableLongProperty, SimpleStyleableObjectProperty, SimpleStyleableStringProperty, StyleableBooleanProperty, StyleableDoubleProperty, StyleableFloatProperty, StyleableIntegerProperty, StyleableLongProperty, StyleableObjectProperty, StyleableStringProperty

public interface StyleableProperty<T>
extends WritableValue<T>

StyleableProperty allows a javafx.beans.property to be styled from CSS.

This interface allows coordination between CSS processing and a javafx.beans.property. The implementation ensure that the priority for setting the value is, in increasing order and assuming equal importance:

a style from a user agent stylesheet in Application.setUserAgentStylesheet(java.lang.String)
value set from code, for example calling Node.setOpacity(double)
a style from an author stylesheet in Scene.getStylesheets() or Parent.getStylesheets()
a style from Node.setStyle(java.lang.String)

The StyleablePropertyFactory greatly simplifies creating a StyleableProperty and its corresponding CssMetaData.

void applyStyle(StyleOrigin origin,
                T value)
```
  This method is called from CSS code to set the value of the property.
- getStyleOrigin
```
StyleOrigin getStyleOrigin()
```

```
CssMetaData<? extends Styleable,T> getCssMetaData()
```
