I want to be able to use a default uxml as inventory for example. I need the structure of the inventory to be the same, but the uss changes per game or even per scene.

I used a game object that I called „Scene Configuration“. (could make it a scriptable object and integrate into game manager, but that is for the future).

The Scene Configuration has an entry

public StyleSheet inventoryUSSFile;

There I drag the custom uss file for the generic inventory uxml.

In the controller for the Inventory UI I read this value from the scene configuraton. This is the uss file asset I want to apply to the inventory on startup.

        private void SetSceneDependantInventoryUSS()
        {
            // get the style sheet list

            VisualElementStyleSheetSet styleSheets = m_Root.styleSheets;

            if (sceneConfiguration.GetSceneInventoryUSS() != null)
            {
                m_Root.styleSheets.Clear();

                m_Root.styleSheets.Add(sceneConfiguration.GetSceneInventoryUSS());
            }
        }

I get the list of style sheets attached to the uxml, but rather a VisualElementStyleSheetSet, that has the ability to add uss style sheet assets to the Visual Element. Thus you need to work directly with the styleSheets object from the Visual Element.

Then I clear all active stylesheets and add mine. Done. No refresh needed.
