Editing WoW:API FontString GetStringHeight

{{widgetmethod}}

Returns how tall the string would be, in pixels, without wrapping:
 Height= MyFontString:GetStringHeight();

== Note ==

* The height of the text will take into account manually set line breaks ("\n" characters).
* This does not necessarily correlate with the height of the FontString object, see the [[UIOBJECT FontString|FontString object information]] for details.
* If you want to use this to set the height of a FontString object after setting its text, you will need to make sure the initial size of the FontString object is big enough to allow the text.  EXAMPLE: If the object will fit 2 lines, and you set the text to a 4 line string, the string will be truncated with "..." when it is set by SetText(), and this function will return the height of 2 lines of text instead of 4.

 MyFrameText:SetHeight(1000); -- Arbitrary number, this is about 83 lines of text, assuming ~12 pixels each
 MyFrameText:SetText("This\nIs\Four\nLines");
 MyFrameText:SetHeight(MyFrameText:GetStringHeight());
 print(MyFrameText:GetHeight(); -- We will see that the new frame height is about 48.
