Configuration information that is attached to this component. This information is not functionally used by CaptainCasa, but may be used for any application specific purpose.
Height of the control. Either defined as absolute value or as percentage value. Pay attention when using percentage sizing: the size refers to what is given from the components above. - When using components within a grid (FIXGRID) then the sizing of the component is completely managed by the grid, you do not need to specify any height in this case.
| 100 | 100 Pixels |
| 120 | 120 Pixels |
| 200 | 200 Pixels |
| 50% | 50 percents |
| 100% | Full available height |

| ref | One reference |
| ref1;ref2 | Two references |
| ref1;ref2;ref3 | Three references |

In CaptainCasa you can define styles definitions for components. A style definition is a definition of a set of default attribute values that are applied to the component. In case you want to differenciate between different usage types of the component you can apply multiple styles - and use the stylevariant attribute to select between.

Pay attention when using percentage sizing: the size refers to what is given from the components above. - When using components within a grid (FIXGRID) then the sizing of the component is completely managed by the grid, you do not need to specify any width in this case.
