Javafx WARNING: Resource "style.css" not found intellij

I am making a simple Javafx application with FXML. My files are all in the same package:

  • MainApp.java
  • MainAppController.java
  • style.css
  • MainApp.fxml

My root tag from the .fxml file contains:

<GridPane fx:id="myRootPanel"
          alignment="CENTER"
          maxHeight="-Infinity" maxWidth="-Infinity"
          minHeight="-Infinity" minWidth="-Infinity" 
          stylesheets="@style.css"
          xmlns="http://javafx.com/javafx/8.0.65" xmlns:fx="http://javafx.com/fxml/1"
          fx:controller="sample.MainAppController">

as you see there is a stylesheets="@style.css", which was even autocompleted by Intellij.

When I open this .fxml file in Scenebuilder, the css is applied correctly, but when I run the project, I get following console messages:

null/style.css and WARNING: Resource "style.css" not found.

I have added *.css to my Resource patterns, did a clean build, invalidated cache, but none of these resolve my problem.

I tried to make a simple application in NetBeans, and when I run that project there, the CSS is applied correctly. Because of this, I think there might be a problem/setting in the Intellij IDE to solve this... Does anyone know what to do?

Thanks in advance.

Solution

  • Seems like the @style.css does not work, instead I used the relative folder path, starting from the root (src): /css/style.css.
