Surely
getHeightwill get the actual current height andgetPreferredHeightwill get the preferred height, no? 🙂Actually, on further investigation, it appears
getPreferredHeightis used by a layout manager so you can tell it what height you want your control to be.The
getHeightcall returns the actual height which, presumably, can change if need be.
