public class Ch extends Units
CSS ch (character) unit value.

The ch unit is equal to the width of the "0" (zero) character in the element's font. This unit is particularly useful for sizing elements based on the number of characters they should contain, especially for monospace fonts.

Usage:


 Units size = new Ch(40);  // Width for approximately 40 characters
 element.setWidth(new Ch(60));
 element.setMaxWidth(new Ch(80));
