How to use predefined Spinner style classes in FXML

According to this Link javaFX 8u45 spinner, can be styled in numerous ways via style class. I do know how to do it by code.

For example:

spinner.getStyleClass().add(Spinner.STYLE_CLASS_SPLIT_ARROWS_HORIZONTAL);

or,

spinner.getStyleClass().add("split-arrows-horizontal");

However, not by fxml. I did try this, but it did not work. I did this via scenebuilder, version 8.

<Spinner fx:id="spn" editable="true" styleClass="split-arrows-horizontal"/>

I am not sure why but defining styleClass in FXML like

<Spinner fx:id="spn" styleClass="split-arrows-horizontal"/>

will not result adding that style to styleClass list. You can check it by

@FXML private Spinner spn;

@Override
public void initialize( URL url, ResourceBundle rb )
{
    System.out.println( "getStyleClass: " + spn.getStyleClass() );
}

However, defining it in FXML as

<Spinner fx:id="spn">
     <styleClass>
        <String fx:value="split-arrows-horizontal" />
     </styleClass>
</Spinner>

works as expected.
