height

The height attribute defines the vertical length of an element in the user coordinate system.

You can use this attribute with the following SVG elements:

Example

<svg viewBox="0 0 300 100" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg">
  <!-- With a height of 0 or less, nothing will be rendered -->
  <rect y="0" x="0" width="90" height="0" />
  <rect y="0" x="100" width="90" height="60" />
  <rect y="0" x="200" width="90" height="100%" />
</svg>
