The MinHeight property is used to get and change the minimum height of a control or window.
The minimum height of the controls and windows is 0 by default. However, some controls cannot be resized below the size of their border.
Reminder: The minimum height of a control or window is used during the following operations:
  • Window resized by the user.
  • Management of anchors.
  • Window resized through programming (with the Height property or the WinSize function).
Example
// Modify the minimum height of a control
EDT_Edit1.MinHeight = 200
EDT_Edit1.Height = 150
// In fact, the height of the control will be equal to 200
Syntax

Finding out the minimum height of an element Hide the details

<Current minimum height> = <Element used>.MinHeight
<Current minimum height>: Integer
Minimum height of specified element (including the border) expressed in pixels.
<Element used>: Control name or window name
Name of element (window or control) whose minimum height will be calculated.

Modifying the minimum height of an element Hide the details

<Element used>.MinHeight = <New minimum height>
<Element used>: Control name or window name
Name of element (window or control) whose minimum height will be modified
<New minimum height>: Integer
New minimum height of element (including the border) expressed in pixels.
Remarks

Initial height (control and window)

The initial height (described in the editor) is returned by the InitialHeight property.
In most cases, the height of an element depends on the MaxHeight and MinHeight properties. However, this constraint no longer applies when the height is changed programmatically (with the Height property or the WinSize function).
