fixed layout grid default

I am new wwb and wed design but learning fast(i hope). Layout grid(fixed) default height is 60 but if I go into properties and try to set another value, it will not allow another value. I saved the html and looked at the code in an old DW and it appears that the value for the height is based somehow on a font size(at least in dw mx 2004), if I add the height attribute below the width and change the width to a set value not 100%
I was hoping that layout grid (fixed) would allow a custom setting in the prop window but it won't take the height value. Is there another way to set a numeric value, If not, no big deal, just learning. Love the program, much to learn thanks Wyndham

A layout grid does not have a height of its onw. The height is based on the content.
So if there is no content then the height of the layout grid is zero.

The reason why the height in the workspace is 60, is because otherwise you would not be able to drag any object inside it.
