Hi Tom,
thanks for th suggestion. The problem is that I want to really switch
des thme of windows, not only style the differently, so the selector
work around does not really work. I am aware that the current
implementation does not support this use case. However, I think it
should be possible to rework the CSSEngine to manage the Theme one level
below th display, don't you? AFAIK, the CSSSWTEngine iterates thru all
Shells anyways to apply a new theme, so it could only apply a theme for
a selected one. Do you see any big technical issues with that approach?
Can you imagine to accept a reworked version of the Engine?
You are a good person to have an opinion on that, as you have
implementes the JavaFX version, don't you?
Regards
Jonas

in FX the root of a Stylesheet system is the Scene (and Stage has a
Scene) so there you have what you request. Currently the Theme
implementation provided by e(fx)clipse does not allow what you request
either although the underlying structure (fx-css-engine) would make it
possible.
