Method Detail

getHeight

int getHeight()

Returns the height of the list contents.

This value is used as a minimum list item height: if the space left on the page is smaller than the height, then an overflow is triggered and the list item is printed on a new page/column.

Returns:

the height of the list contents

getWidth

java.lang.Integer getWidth()

Returns the width of the list contents.

When the list is filled horizontally, several list cells will be placed on the same row one next to another within the width of the list element (unless the list element width is ignored). The width of the list contents will determine how many cells can be placed on a row.

Returns:

the width of the list contents
