The calculation mode.

Remarks

Calculate the height according to the following table.

Mode	Height calculation
Exact	The exact height of the control in pixels is used.
Auto	The height of the control is calculated automatically, and the value parameter is ignored.
Column height	The layout of the form determines the height of the control.

The height of the control might change when the calculation mode is set to Auto or Column height.

The following example shows a call to the heightMode method to adjust the control height, based on an exact pixel value.

    formBuildStringControl.dataSource(formBuildDataSource.id()); 
    formBuildStringControl.dataField(2); 
    args = new Args();

    // Create the run-time form. 
    formRun = classfactory.formRunClass(args);
