Hi, Pablo. I have no idea of what= you need to do, but in grph-inc.lua you find the following (line 709):
=
implement { name =3D "figurestatus", =C2=A0 actions =3D { get= , context }, arguments =3D { "'status'", =C2=A0"stri= ng", "string" } }

So that \figureheight calls t= his function via \clf_figurestatus and, in turn, it calls figures.get. If I= 'm right,

figures.get('status','height',&= #39;0') -- or '"status"' ?

would have to= return the value you're asking for (at the TeX end, "sp" uni= ts are added). A MWE wouldn't hurt. I hope this helps or, at least, it = leads you through the right direction.

Cordially,

Jairo

Sorry for insisting, I need it for a Lua script that in the relevant
line reads:

=C2=A0 loader_times:write('.box placeholder width=3D' .. context.fi= gurewidth
=C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0.. ' height=3D' .. context.figureheight)

I cannot concatenate string and function (and I need the number, not the unit).

Is there no way of doing it?

Many thanks for your help,

Pablo
