Sets or retrieves the height of the object.

Possible values are:

  • height - Integer that specifies the height of the object, in pixels.

  • percentage - Integer, followed by a percent sign (%). The value is a percentage of the height of the parent object.

Percentage values are based on the height of the parent object.

When scripting the height property, use either the pixelHeight or posHeight property to numerically manipulate the height value.
