Javafx CSS Parsing Error

Question

Hello currently I am working on adding a css file to my application in order to customize the interface more. However I am experiencing an error while parsing the CSS file. The application still runs, but I would like to know if this error may cause problems in the future if I leave it and how do I fix it. Below is the error, CSS file and the import of the CSS file.

Import

mapScene.getStylesheets().add(getClass().getResource("mapScene.css").toExternalForm());

CSS

.label{
-fx-font-size: 20;
-fx-font: Times New Roman;
-fx-background-color: #FDFEFE;
}

Error

You need to quote the font name, since it contains spaces, and use -fx-font-family. When you have multiple values for -fx-font it is expecting the first to be the font size (hence it is expecting a number):

.label {
    -fx-font-size: 20;
    -fx-font-family: "Times New Roman";
    -fx-background-color: #FDFEFE;
}

See the JavaFX CSS documentation for details on font settings.

Try to use this

mapScene.getStylesheets().add("/mapScene.css");

Also you have to use px in -fx-font-size

Like -fx-font-size :12px;

Unfortunately this does not solve the problem and returns the same error as before. Also it should be\\mapScene.css not /mapScene.css.
