[Xerte] Can I get the displayed height of a text clip?

[Julian Tenney]

I just added _ytile as a property to ICON, it returns _y + _height - give it a test for me,

I'm trying to write references into the y value of the .rlo
I was hoping to use direct refs.

Tracking currentY would require adding <SCR icons I think.

In the write out, for the y value, I'd like to have something like
some_icon._ytile + 37
