### Virtual Method

# Clutter Actorget_preferred_height

#### Declaration [src]

    void
    get_preferred_height (
      ClutterActor* self,
      gfloat for_width,
      gfloat* min_height_p,
      gfloat* natural_height_p
    )

#### Description [src]

Computes the requested minimum and natural heights for an actor, or if they are already computed, returns the cached values.

An actor may not get its request - depending on the layout manager that’s in effect.

A request should not incorporate the actor’s scale or translation; those transformations do not affect layout, only rendering.
