The `height` rule sets a widget's height. By default, it sets the height of the content area, but if `box-sizing` is set to `border-box` it sets the height of the border area.
## Syntax
```
height: <SCALAR>;
```
## Example
This examples creates a widget with a height of 50% of the screen.
=== "height.py"
```python
--8<-- "docs/examples/styles/height.py"
```
=== "height.css"
```python
--8<-- "docs/examples/styles/height.css"
```
=== "Output"
```{.textual path="docs/examples/styles/height.py"}
```
## CSS
```sass
/* Explicit cell height */
height: 10;
/* Percentage height */
height: 50%;
/* Automatic height */
width: auto
```
## Python
```python
self.styles.height = 10
self.styles.height = "50%
self.styles.height = "auto"
```
