# tileHeight

The height of the tiles, in pixels, for the render command encoder.

```
var tileHeight: Int { get }
```

## Discussion

The value comes from the [`tileHeight`](/documentation/Metal/MTLRenderPassDescriptor/tileHeight) property of the [`MTLRenderPassDescriptor`](/documentation/Metal/MTLRenderPassDescriptor) at the time you create the render command encoder.
