Can you define custom styles directly in the Style Property of a Screen?

Defining custom styles directly in the Style Property of a Screen is possible and beneficial for a few reasons. In OutSystems, the Style Property allows developers to assign CSS styles directly to elements, enabling them to customize the appearance of screens beyond the limitations of pre-defined styles. This flexibility is particularly important for creating a unique user interface that aligns with specific branding or design requirements.

Being able to apply custom styles directly means developers can write CSS rules for elements such as font sizes, colors, margins, and other visual properties tailored to the needs of their application. This capability complements the use of themes, allowing for quick adjustments to individual elements without the need to modify entire theme files or create new themes.

In contrast, restricting styles to only pre-defined options would limit customization and creativity, making it difficult to achieve desired aesthetics. While themes are a fantastic way to maintain consistency across an application, the possibility of applying custom styles directly liberates developers from rigid design frameworks and enables them to fine-tune their application's look and feel more granularly.
