Edward I commented on RF-12978:
-------------------------------

Thanks - that explanation makes sense.

I tried placing the <link> within the body, but the result was the same behaviour: .rf-cst-c must be defined in the .xhtml body for the styles to take effect.

More importantly, the ordering of the styles, i.e. RF styles defined after user styles thereby overriding user styles, doesn't make much sense.  The whole point of users defining their own styles is to override the default styles, so why would you implement it this way?  It's like the user saying "I want to use this style" (by defining it in css and applying it via the rowClasses variables), and then saying "I really, really want to use this style" (by forcing them to tell RF to not use it's own styles via the .rf-cst override... which needs to be done inline in the .xhtml for some strange reason and therefore in every .xhtml where rowClasses is to be used.

I think more logical behaviour is that if a user defines their own styles, those styles should automatically override the default (RF) styles.  By the way, this also explains similar problems I've had with trying to apply css classes to other RF4 components.

I hope you can change this because trying to override the default styles is now very complicated as we need to find out which .rf-... style to override as "inherit" or equivalent, and then do it inline in every single .xhtml page.

> The rowClasses is ignored in the following:
> {code:xml}
> <rich:collapsibleSubTable value="#{item.items}" var="comp" rowClasses="oddRow, evenRow">
> {code}
> DataTable works correctly with the same rowClasses.
