How to set table row height in a Word document?

Syncfusion® Essential® DocIO is a .NET Word library used to create, read, edit, and convert Word documents programmatically without Microsoft Word or interop dependencies. Using this library, you can set table row height in a Word document using C#.

To set the row height in a Word document, use the Height property of the WTableRow class. The row height can be defined using different height rules, AtLeast or Exactly, using the HeightType property.
Exactly→ The row height is fixed, and text that doesn’t fit may be clipped.
AtLeast→ The row height starts at the given value but grows if more content is added.

Steps to set table row height in a Word document:

1. Create a new .NET Core console application project.
   
   
2. Install the Syncfusion.DocIO.Net.Core NuGet package as a reference to your project from NuGet.org.
   
   

3. Include the following namespaces in the Program.cs file.
   C#

using Syncfusion.DocIO.DLS;
using Syncfusion.DocIO; 

4. Use the following code example to set table row height in a Word document.
   C#

using (FileStream fileStreamPath = new FileStream(Path.GetFullPath(@"Data/Template.docx"), FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read, FileShare.ReadWrite))
{
   //Loads the template document.
   using (WordDocument document = new WordDocument(fileStreamPath, FormatType.Docx))
   {
       //Gets the text body of the first section.
       WTextBody textbody = document.Sections[0].Body;
       //Gets the table.
       IWTable table = textbody.Tables[0];
       //Iterates through table rows.
       foreach (WTableRow row in table.Rows)
       {
           WTableRow tableRow = row as WTableRow;
           //Set table row height.
           tableRow.Height = 30.2f;
           //Set table row height type.
           tableRow.HeightType = TableRowHeightType.Exactly;
       }
       //Creates file stream.
       using (FileStream outputFileStream = new FileStream(Path.GetFullPath(@"Output/Result.docx"), FileMode.Create, FileAccess.ReadWrite))
       {
           //Saves the Word document to file stream.
           document.Save(outputFileStream, FormatType.Docx);
       }
   }
}
