Like the headline reads How to change TextArea background color with CSSUtils?

The following code only sets the color for the border (I'm using Color picker dialog)

And "fx-background" has no effect. CSSUtils.SetBackGroundColor.. is the same as below.

B4X: 
CSSUtils.SetStyleProperty(TextArea1,"-fx-background-color", CSSUtils.ColorToHex(Value))

How to do this?

This is what it looks like. I am using a TextArea in a TabPane. Document tab=HTMLeditor / Code Tab=TextArea)
I use a CSS file for the design were I also set textarea properties. Might be that?



Code
B4X: 
Sub ColorPickerBgr_ValueChanged (Value As Paint)

    Log (Value)
    CSSUtils.SetBackgroundColor(TextAreaCode, fx.Colors.Red)
 
End Sub

CSS

I removed the -fx-background-color in .text-area .context but the problem is still the same. I was hoping CSSUtils would override the CSS settings and in Internal Designer (yes I am only using it since it's better than Scene Builder mostly because of the scaling script which is extremely useful)

Yes I will do that. Also as a way to debug it to build it step by step that should be helpful. Thanks
