public Class CustomPasswordField

A base class for people wanting to customize a PasswordField to contain nodes inside the input field area itself, without being on top of the users typed-in text.

Whilst not exactly the same, refer to the CustomTextField javadoc for a screenshot and more detail. The obvious difference is that of course the CustomPasswordField masks the input from users, but in all other ways is equivalent to CustomTextField.

public String getUserAgentStylesheet()

Overrides javafx.scene.layout.Region.getUserAgentStylesheet.

Doc from javafx.scene.layout.Region.getUserAgentStylesheet.

An implementation may specify its own user-agent styles for this Region, and its children, by overriding this method. These styles are used in addition to whatever user-agent stylesheets are in use. This provides a mechanism for third parties to introduce styles for custom controls.

The URL is a hierarchical URI of the form [scheme:][//authority][path]. If the URL does not have a [scheme:] component, the URL is considered to be the [path] component only. Any leading '/' character of the [path] is ignored and the [path] is treated as a path relative to the root of the application's classpath.

Subclasses overriding this method should not assume any particular implementation approach as to the number and frequency with which it is called. For this reason, attempting any kind of dynamic implementation (i.e. returning different user agent stylesheet values) based on some state change is highly discouraged, as there is no guarantee when, or even if, this method will be called. Some JavaFX CSS implementations may choose to cache this response for an indefinite period of time, and therefore there should be no expectation around when this method is called.
