GWT Java - set font style

I want to set the label style depending on certain input. I have found how to set the colour, font weight, font style, font size and indent. However, I can not find how to set the font family to, e.g., "Arial". 

lblTaskName.getElement().getStyle().setColor("Navy");
lblTaskName.getElement().getStyle().setFontWeight(FontWeight.BOLD);
lblTaskName.getElement().getStyle().setFontStyle(FontStyle.ITALIC);
lblTaskName.getElement().getStyle().setFontSize(14.0, Unit.PT);
lblTaskName.getElement().getStyle().setTextIndent(15.0, Unit.PT);

If you are changing so many properties, I would recommend defining a class in your CSS and applying this class to the label.

myWidget.addStyleName("label");

It's a much cleaner approach than hardcoding all values in your code. For example, you can add rules to your CSS file to adjust these properties based on a screen size, and you won't have to touch your code.

I've seen issue withWidget#getElement()#setAttribute() in IE. The better way is:

myWidget.getElement().getStyle().setProperty("fontFamily", "Arial");

I've never tried font-family in this way. The general rule for getStyle().setProperty('camelCase','value')

camel-case becomes -> camelCase.
