LISTBOX Get footers height ( {* ;} object {; unit} ) -> Function result

Parameter	Type	Description
*	Operator	If specified, object is an object name (string) If omitted, object is a variable
object	Form object	Object Name (if * is specified) or Variable (if * is omitted)
unit	Longint	Unit of height value: 0 or omitted = pixels, 1 = lines
Function result	Longint	Row height

Description

The LISTBOX Get footers height command returns the height of the footer row in the list box designated by the object and * parameters.

If you pass the optional * parameter, this indicates that the object parameter is an object name (a string). If you do not pass this parameter, this indicates that the object is a variable. In this case, you pass a variable reference instead of a string. You can designate either the list box or any footer of the list box.

By default, if you omit the unit parameter, the height of the row returned is expressed in pixels. To set a different unit, you can pass one of the following constants (found in the List Box theme), in the unit parameter:

Constant	Type	Value	Comment
lk lines	Longint	1	Height is expressed as a number of lines. 4D calculates the height of a line according to the font.
lk pixels	Longint	0	Height is expressed as a number of pixels (default).

Note: For more information about calculating the height of rows, refer to the Design Reference manual.
