After reading a lot about CSS styling I still could not find the solution to my problem. Is is the following: I have an application that I developed with Eclipse 4.1. Since Eclipse 4.2 had some error that was a showstopper for me, I waited for Eclipse 4.3. Now I moved everything to this version and all works like a champ -- except for CSS styling when exportin the product (which worked fine, however).

I am using static styling:

plugin.xml:
<property
 name="applicationCSS"
 value="platform:/plugin/plugin-id/css/default.css">
</property>


The file is exported in the respective JAR but when I start the exported application (on Linux and Windows), the CSS styling is not being applied.

After hours of searching and also trying themes (without success), I simply renamed the setting in plugin.xml to:

<property
 name="applicationCSS"
 value="platform:/plugin/plugin-id/css/default.css1">
</property>


where the file "default.css1" does not exist. When I start the application in Eclipse IDE I get an error message in the log. When I start the exported application, however, no error message can be found in the log. So I am assuming, that CSS styling is not used at all.

No, I am rather desperate. Has anybody an idea what else I can try?

Did you include the CSS file into the build.properties file for that respective plugin?

Hi,
take a look at this post:
http://www.eclipse.org/forums/index.php/m/1016153/?srch=AbstractCSSEngine#msg_1016153

I had the same problem and fixed it by patching the class AbstractCSSEngine, I think there exist also a Bug in the Eclipse Bugzilla but can't find it anymore

CSS in build.properties should fix this.
