Class Ex

public class Ex extends Units
CSS ex (x-height) unit value.

The ex unit is equal to the x-height of the element's font, which is typically the height of the lowercase letter "x". This unit is font-dependent and useful for vertical spacing that should scale with the font's characteristics.

Usage:


 Units size = new Ex(2);
 element.setLineHeight(new Ex(3));
 element.setPadding(new Ex(1));
