Defaults and timings

Every number Strata picks for you. Where a theme metric can change a number, the row names its key.

Every component

Setting	Default
Visible, enabled	yes
Focusable, tabbable	no, except the controls that are Focusable: buttons, toggle buttons, drop-down buttons, cycle buttons, checkboxes, radio buttons (one Tab stop for a whole group), toggle switches, sliders, text boxes, password boxes, text areas, spinners (one stop, the field), lists, tables and trees (one stop, the inner list), grid views, combo boxes, tab bars, expanders, split panes (the divider), color pickers, navigation views, calendar views and the date and time pickers. Scroll bars and scroll panels are Focusable but start with focus off. Menus and flyouts are focusable but not tabbable. Tab index 0.
Margin	Insets.NONE
Minimum size	0 by 0
Maximum size	Float.POSITIVE_INFINITY both ways

Alignment	LEFT, TOP, except windows and message boxes (centered), separators (stretched along their line), info bars (stretched across, at the top), and spacers and navigation views (stretched both ways)
Z index	0
Opacity	1
Hit testing	on: the pointer can hit the component unless setHitTestVisible(false)
Focus shown	when focus came from the keyboard, or from code while the last press was a key's or nothing was pressed yet; a key pressed while focused shows it and a pointer press hides it
Id	none; Strata never checks it

Threading and frames

Setting	Value
UI thread of a platform with no executor	tasks run at the start of the next flush, layout or render of any host of the platform
UI thread of a platform with no check	the first thread that drives a host, for good
A task that throws	logged as an error; the next one runs. submit fails its future instead.
execute on the UI thread	queues the task; it runs after the current dispatch
Cause frame around a task	none, so what it changes reports Origin.CODE unless it pushes a frame
Opening a screen from another thread	a handle at once; its calls wait for the screen, and factory() throws until it has opened
A host needs a frame	after input, a layout or binding change, a task handed over, a report, an overlay opening or closing, a theme, size or density change, repaint() and every running animation
Frame requester	called when a host turns from clean to dirty, possibly on any thread, and not again before the next render
Frame rate	30 frames a second (ScreenHost.DEFAULT_FRAME_RATE), from 1 to 1000 with setFrameRate
Earliest next frame	one interval of the frame rate after the last render began
Sliding caption, animation, anything else that moves continuously	asks for the next frame the rate allows, one interval later
Caret, busy indicator, indeterminate progress bar	ask for their next change as they paint

Animation

Setting	Value
Built-in motion	off: toggle.animation, expander.animation, nav.animation, scroll.smooth, toast.fade and progress.animation are 0 milliseconds

Easing.EASE_IN_OUT	cubic Bezier with control points (0.42, 0) and (0.58, 1)
Easing of built-in motion	EASE_OUT; a toast's fade out uses EASE_IN
Next step of an animation	one interval of the host's frame rate after each step
An animation of 0 milliseconds	one step on the next frame
Cause of a step	the Animation, with Origin.CODE, so requests do not fire
Component opacity	1
Animations when a screen closes	stop where they are

Drawing

Setting	Value
Density, Environment.pixelsPerUnit()	1 until the adapter calls setPixelsPerUnit; the painter multiplies it by every scaled in progress
Stroke.of(width)	butt caps and miter joins
Radius of a rounded rectangle, a round clip or a shadow	limited to half the shorter side; below 0 counts as 0
Fill rule of a shape	nonzero
Smoothing	on where the engine can; smoothed(false, ...) asks for hard edges
Rounded paint without a radius	a solid color
PixelBuffer	transparent black, version 0, at most 268,435,456 pixels
Shapes on an engine that draws none	rows one device pixel high (1 / pixelsPerUnit), scanned in at most 2048 rows at a time, from fills that merge with the row above when they match; gradients at an angle in at most 1024 columns; shadows in up to 6 rings; miter joins as bevels; no anti-aliasing; round clips square
Capabilities.drawsShapes, shapesRightToLeft	false unless the constructor says so; the two- and three-argument constructors give false for both
Canvas.pushOpacity, popOpacity	do nothing, so part-opaque components draw opaque
Canvas.pushRoundClip	pushClip
Canvas.pixels	the unknown visual's placeholder
TextMetrics.ascent	0.8 of the line height
Cursor kinds a canvas shows	the eight older kinds (showsCursor); a kind it lacks falls back: the diagonals to RESIZE_ALL, GRAB and GRABBING to HAND, NO_DROP to NOT_ALLOWED, the others to ARROW
Input device of a form with no InputContext	MOUSE for pointer input, KEYBOARD for keys; pointer 0, pressure 1

Screens

Setting	Value
Screen.title()	empty text
Screen.closeRequested	true: the screen agrees
ScreenHost.title()	empty with no screen; the screen's title, or what setTitle set, while it is open
ScreenHost.requestClose()	true with no screen open
ScreenHost.preferredSize, ScreenStack.preferredSize	Size.ZERO with no screen
Escape closing a screen	not in core: an adapter whose engine does it calls requestClose()

Validation, converters and text editing

Setting	Value
Validation of a control	Validation.VALID, with no validator
Outline of an error, of a warning	one unit inside the bounds, in the theme's validation.error, else solid 0xFFE04848, and validation.warning, else solid 0xFFE0A030
Number converters	written in the locale's digits without grouping; read with grouping allowed, spaces around the number ignored; rounded half up; decimals from 0 to 15
Edit history	100 edits per field; 0 keeps none
Typing merges into the entry before	while less than 1000 ms passed and no whitespace closed it
setText, from code or a binding	clears the history
Accepts Tab (text area)	no
Text alignment (text box, password box, text area, spinner)	LEFT; STRETCH counts as LEFT
Field text	grapheme clusters stay whole in moves, deletes, wrapping, ellipsis and maxLength, which counts code points

Internationalization

Setting	Value
Flow direction	the parent's; the top of a screen follows FlowDirection.of the translator's locale, worked out again when the language changes
Plural categories	the CLDR cardinal rules of the translator's locale for whole numbers; a language Strata has no rule for uses English's
Plural text	key.<category>, else key.other, else key.other shown as itself with one warning
Numbers a spinner writes	in the locale's digits, decimal separator and minus sign, without grouping
Numbers a spinner reads	ASCII and the locale's digits, the locale's separator or a period, the locale's minus sign or a hyphen

The test kit

Setting	Value
TesterOptions.DEFAULT	800 by 600 units, Themes.flat(), Translator.NONE, and the wall clock at noon UTC on 15 January 2026
Text	6 units per code point, 7 in a monospaced style, 9 per line, at a default size of 9; other sizes in proportion
Clock	stands still until advance
Repeating tasks	run as advance passes them, once for each interval, on the test's thread
Key repeat	none: the platform reports that the engine sends its own
Pointer modifiers	none, unless press names some
settle()	gives up after a minute of animation

Binding

Setting	Value
When a state change reaches its controls	at the start of the next layout or render, or on flush()

Swing repeating tasks	a javax.swing.Timer each, on the event thread, coalescing missed runs; none in a snapshot
Vulkan repeating tasks	a VulkanScheduler, run as the view renders, dropping missed runs
Minecraft repeating tasks	Sponge's client scheduler where Sponge is present, else the client tick; intervals round up to 50 ms ticks
