FXML Label text bold

Question

Can someone please tell me how to make the text inside a label bold in Java FXML?

 <Label fx:id="LegalLabel"  text= "Legal Information" GridPane.halignment="RIGHT" GridPane.rowIndex="16" />

Thank you.

Answer 1

Give this a shot

legalLabel.setStyle("-fx-font-weight: bold;");

or try making your fxml look like this

<Label fx:id="LegalLabel"  text= "Legal Information" GridPane.halignment="RIGHT" GridPane.rowIndex="16">
    <font>
        <Font name="System Bold" size="13.0" />
    </font>
</Label>

Edit: try this: legalLabel.setFont(Font.font("Verdana", FontWeight.BOLD, 12));
