How do I apply a style (like padding) to all Nodes visible ever? As in, that should be the default style (each Node could overwrite it, ofc)

Why would you want to apply padding to all visible nodes?

By default only controls in JavaFX have pre-defined style-class assigned to them. Therefore, if you want to do it via css, you will have to first assign a style class to each visible node.

Actually, in CSS, you can use * to style everything. (Int the CSS DSL, the appropriate selector is star.)

(You may want to be careful with this though. Most `Node`s in JavaFX are made of many nested `Node`s, so you may see a lot more padding than you expect.)

@Ruckus I generally avoid using * for performance reasons 🙂
