Returns the node's minimum height for use in layout calculations. If the node is resizable, its parent should not resize its height any smaller than this value. If the node is not resizable, returns its layoutBounds height.

Layout code which calls this method should first check the content-bias of the node. If the node has a horizontal content-bias, then callers should pass in a width value that the minimum height should be based on. If the node has either a vertical or null content-bias, then the caller should pass in -1.

Node subclasses with a horizontal content-bias should honor the width parameter whether -1 or a positive value. All other subclasses may ignore the width parameter (which will likely be -1).

If Node's maxHeight(double) is lower than this number, minHeight takes precedence. This means the Node should never be resized below minHeight.

Parameters:

width

the width that should be used if minimum height depends on it

Returns:  the minimum height that the node should be resized to during layout The result will never be NaN, nor will it ever be negative.
