## gdkCharHeight

### Description

See `gdkTextExtents`. WARNING: `gdk_char_height` has been deprecated since version 2.2 and should not be used in newly-written code. Use `gdkTextExtents` instead.

### Usage

    gdkCharHeight(object, character)

### Arguments

``object`` | a `GdkFont`
``character`` | the character to measure.
