JavaFX CSS for all FXML Default Buttons

Question

I'm using the default button property on all of my Modal Windows.

Which is the CSS property to modify all of them without the need of creating a new CSS class id?

By default all of them are light-blue with a black font color, and i don't really like it.

According to the documentation, you should be able to use

.button:default {
    /* your style rules here */
}

in your external CSS file.

The default stylesheet, modena.css, has the rule

.button:default {
    -fx-base: -fx-default-button ;
}

where -fx-default-button is defined as a light blue:

-fx-default-button: #ABD8ED;

so another option would just be to change the definition of -fx-default-button:

.root {
    -fx-default-button: /* your preferred color here */ ;
}
