..MinHeight is used to find out and modify the minimum height of a control or window.
The minimum height of controls and windows is equal to 0 by default. However, some controls cannot be resized below the size of their border.
Reminder: The minimum height of a control or window is used during the following operations:
  • Window resized by the user.
  • Management of anchors.
  • Window resized by programming (..Height or WinSize).

Syntax

Finding out the minimum height of an element Hide the details

<Current minimum height> = <Element name>..MinHeight
<Current minimum height>: Integer
Minimum height of specified element (including the border) expressed in pixels.
<Element name>: Character string (with or without quotes)
Name of element (window or control) whose minimum height will be calculated.

Modifying the minimum height of an element Hide the details

<Element name>..MinHeight = <New minimum height>
<Element name>: Character string (with or without quotes)
Name of element (window or control) whose minimum height will be modified
<New minimum height>: Integer
New minimum height of element (including the border) expressed in pixels.
Remarks

Initial height (control and window)

The initial height (described in the editor) is returned by ..InitialHeight.
In most cases, the element height depends on ..MaxHeight and ..MinHeight. However, this constraint disappears when the height is modified by programming (..Height or WinSize).

Limits for the controls and windows

In Windows 98, the size of elements is limited to ± 32 767. In Windows NT/2000, it is possible (but not recommended) to specify a size up to ± 2 147 483 647.
