You can put the following variables within the <Dict> node of the EditorialConfig configuration file. For instructions, see Adding or overriding variables in your EditorialConfig.

Find the actual values of such variables in EditorialConfig item in EdAdmin4, the Application Configuration > Client Applications, searching for EditorialConfig. The data is common for all titles in the system.

Should you need to specify different values of variables for different typographies, look for instructions at the Typography-dependent overridable variables.

A series of global variables handles the heights of article frames when added on page by AddObjectAuto sub. Every value comes in pairs: an absolute value, e.g. glbKickerH, and a multiplier for vertical grid, e.g. glbKickerM.

Variable	Type	Default value	Comment
glbDefaultsHavePriority	Boolean	"0" (false)	This value defines if glbKickerH and other below values with H suffix have priority over multipliers of VG (values with M suffix) when adding frames for article elements on page through AddObjectAuto, default is 0 - that means the multipliers will be used by default.
glbKickerH	Integer	30000	kicker height in mpt - used only if glbDefaultsHavePriority = -1 or true.
glbKickerM		3	kicker height in vertical grid multiplier - used by default, except if vg = 0 or less than minVertGrid - in that case the glbKickerH is used.
glbHeadH		60000	head height in mpt - used only if glbDefaultsHavePriority = -1 or true.
glbHeadM		6	head height in vertical grid multiplier - used by default, except if vg = 0 or less than minVertGrid - in that case the glbHeadH is used.
glbsubHeadH		30000	subhead height in mpt - used only if glbDefaultsHavePriority = -1 or true.
glbsubHeadM		3	subhead height in vertical grid multiplier - used by default, except if vg = 0 or less than minVertGrid - in that case the glbsubheadH is used.
glbIntroH		30000	intro height in mpt - used only if glbDefaultsHavePriority = -1 or true.
glbIntroM		3	intro height in vertical grid multiplier - used by default, except if vg = 0 or less than minVertGrid - in that case the glbIntroH is used.
glbPhotoH		60000	not used
glbPhotoM		6	not used
glbPullQuoteH		40000	pull quote height in mpt - used only if glbDefaultsHavePriority = -1 or true.
glbPullQuoteM		4	pull quote height in vertical grid multiplier - used by default, except if vg = 0 or less than minVertGrid - in that case the glbpullquoteH is used.
glbBodyMinH		100000	not used
glbBodyMinM		10	not used
