Hello,

With the release of macOS 26 coming up, I just wanted to say that I have 
been running it the last few weeks without much issues with JavaFX 
applications.

The only thing I noticed is that the accent color platform preference 
somehow does not update on a settings change. The light/dark mode 
setting does update though.

It would also be nice to have access to the new icon/widget style 
property in the platform preferences. That way, the application can 
update its own icons in addition to the .app icon, like in here:
