Change JavaFx Tab default Look

Question

You should also override the CSS:

.tab-pane:top *.tab-header-area {
    -fx-background-insets: 0, 0 0 1 0;
 /* -fx-padding: 0.416667em 0.166667em 0.0em 0.833em; /* 5 2 0 10 */
    -fx-padding: 0.416667em 0.166667em 0.0em 0.0em; /* overridden as 5 2 0 0 */
}

Here the left padding value of the tab-header-area changed from 10 to 0. In addition you need to override other CSS selectors: .tab-pane:bottom, .tab-pane:left and .tab-pane:right in the same manner for different javafx.geometry.Sides of the TabPane.
