class HtmlService method .setHeight()

HtmlService is the Apps Script service.

.setHeight() is the method name you will see after a dot in your code.

What it does

Sets the height of a dialog in pixels.

Why it's used

  • Tall enough sidebars for logs or long lists.
  • Stop dialogs from clipping scrollable content.

Common errors

  • Forgetting parentheses on setHeight. Write HtmlService.setHeight(), not HtmlService.setHeight or setHeight by itself.
  • Skipping dots between chained calls. Each step needs a dot, like HtmlService.setHeight().
  • Adding spaces where they do not belong. Write HtmlService.setHeight(), not HtmlService .setHeight(), HtmlService.setHeight (), or HtmlService . setHeight().
  • Wrong capitalization. Use HtmlService and setHeight, not htmlservice or setheight.
