Max Height

Introduction

The Max Height variable sets the maximum height in pixels. This value is applied after all other layout so it can be used to overwrite automatically-assigned height.

By default this value is <NULL> which means there is no Max Height.

If Max Height is assigned (not <NULL>), then the effective height cannot be larger than the Max Height value. The following animation shows that height is limited to a Max Height of 100.

Notice that the Height variable can still be set to a value larger than the Max Height, but it does not apply visually.

Max Height can also be used if Height Units is set to values other than Absolute. For example, Max Height can be used to limit the height of a ColoredRectangle when Height Units is Relative to Parent.
