Element height in Javascript is not render height in DOM

Question

I'm trying to get the absolute rendered height of an element in Google Chrome:

When I inspect the element, the height shows up as 38.4:

What's the deal, how can I get the real height value?

It's rounded to the nearest whole integer. See [MDN's documentation of clientHeight](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Element/clientHeight). — Heretic Monkey, Mar 01 '18 at 00:51

Have you tried parsing it into float by using parseFloat(elementHeight); ?
