◆ height()

int32 xtd::drawing::font::height ( ) const
noexcept

Gets the line spacing of this font.

Returns
The line spacing, in pixels, of this font.
Remarks
The line spacing is the vertical distance between the base lines of two consecutive lines of text. Thus, the line spacing includes the blank space between lines along with the height of the character itself.
If the unit property of the font is set to anything other than graphics_unit::pixel, the height (in pixels) is calculated using the vertical resolution of the screen display. For example, suppose the font unit is inches and the font size is 0.3. Also suppose that for the corresponding font family, the em-height is 2048 and the line spacing is 2355. For a screen display that has a vertical resolution of 96 dots per inch, you can calculate the height as follows:
2355*(0.3/2048)*96 = 33.11719
The value returned by the get_height method would be 33.11719, and the value returned by the height property would be 34. The height property is the value returned by get_height, rounded up to the nearest integer.
