Note: this is an example for documentation completeness purposes. RelValue has no known working use at this time.

<Frame name="MyFrame">
  <Size x="200" y="200"/>
  <Layers>
    <Layer>
      <FontString text="Bob" inherits="MyFont">
        <Size x="100" y="100"/>
        <FontHeight>
          <RelValue val="12.5"/>
        </FontHeight>
        <Anchors>
          <Anchor point="TOP"/>
        </Anchors>
      </FontString>
    </Layer>
  </Layers>
</Frame>
