← Widget API ← Region < GetHeight
Gets the height and width, respectively, of an object.
dimension = MyObject:GetWidth(); dimension = MyObject:GetHeight();
Returns
- dimension
- Number - height/width of the object in pixels, in its own coordinate space (scaling dependent). This is the desired height/width, if set with :SetHeight() / :SetWidth(), or the actual height/width used if computed from two or more :SetPoint() calls.
Example
myAddonOptionsParent = myAddonOptions:GetParent(); myAddonOptions:SetWidth(myAddonOptionsParent:GetWidth() / 2);
Result
- The frame named "myAddonOptions" would be set to half the width of its parent frame.
Notes
Note that even though FontString has GetWidth()/GetHeight() methods, they behave very differently and have potentially very little to do with the displayed dimension.
