Yes, use the StyleSheet component from the toolbox. Drop it on the container at design time and it will add the CssClass property to all controls. You can use it to assign a css class name. You can also type css or assign a css file to the styleSheet component, and/or you can simply add a css file to Default.html.

Or you can target an element using the id, and/or name and class combination using the standard css selection rules.

Another way is to create a new appearance key in a mixin theme file. The new appearance key can inherit from an existing one and then you can change the styles and properties. Most Wisej controls let you change their appearance key.

The Wisej theme system is easier and more flexible than plain css since it also supports properties while css is limited to predefined styles. You can also edit mixin files using the Theme Builder and you can create custom preview js scripts or simply preview and theme your app while running.

CSS gets very messy and very complicated quickly and with a lot of unintended consequences because of style inheritance and selection rules. Wisej generates the css styles on the fly as needed from the theme json definition.
