All Implemented Interfaces:

public class Desktop
extends Displayable

A desktop is the top-level object that can be displayed on a Display.

It contains a widget. This widget can be a container to have a more elaborate hierarchy of widgets.

A desktop may be shown or hidden, but at most one desktop is shown per Display.

A desktop provides a stylesheet, which is used by the widgets of the desktop in order to retrieve their style. By default, the stylesheet is a VoidStylesheet, but this can be changed at any time.
