Height (Property)

In french: Hauteur

The Height property gets and sets the height:

of a control or block in a report.
of a control (in a window), window, row of a Table, List Box or ListView control, option of a Radio Button or Check Box control, break header or footer of a Table or Looper control.
of a break cell in a Table or Looper control.

You can also get the height of a cell in a Table control.

Remarks:

The border of the control or block is included in its height. The HeightInPixel property is used to get the height of a control in pixels.
The height of a control is defined in the editor, in the control description.

Example

// Augmente la hauteur du champ "SAI_NomClient"
SAI_NomClient.Hauteur = SAI_NomClient.Hauteur + 15
// Est équivalent à : SAI_NomClient.Hauteur + = 15

// Modification de la hauteur de la fenêtre et d'un champ
FEN_FicheClient.Hauteur += 100	// Ajoute 100 pixels
SAI_Saisie1.Hauteur += 10	// Ajoute 10 pixels

Syntax

Finding out the height of an element Hide the details

<Result> = <Element used>.Height

<Result>: Real

Height of the specified element. This height is expressed in pixels in a window and/or in a page, and in millimeters in a report.

<Element used>: Name of control or block.

Name of the element (control or block) to use.

Modifying the height of an element Hide the details

<Element used>.Height = <New height>

<Element used>: Name of control or block.

Name of the element (control or block) to use.

<New height>: Real

New height of the specified element. This height is expressed in pixels in a window and/or in a page, and in millimeters in a report.

Remarks

Height in a report

The height of a non-breakable block cannot exceed the available page height (excluding the page header and the page footer).
The height of a page footer cannot be modified. However, the height of a page header can be modified through programming.
A control must be entirely contained in the block to which it belongs.

Row height

The height of each row in a Table, List Box or ListView control can be defined programmatically. For browsing List Box and Table controls, this height is kept for the visible section on the screen only

Example: Set the height of line 3 of the "LISTE_Liste1" list to 200.

LISTE_Liste1[3].Hauteur = 200

Note: For a column in a Table control, the property Height property indicates the visible height of the Table control column. This property is read-only.

Initial height (control and window)

The initial height (described in the editor) is returned by the InitialHeight property.

In most cases, the height of an object depends on MaxHeight and MinHeight. However, this constraint no longer applies when the height is changed through programming (with the Height property or the WinSize function).
