*Instance Property*

Layer-specific metrics key for the vertical origin.

## Declaration

```swift
var vertOriginMetricsKey: String? { get set }
```

```objc
@property (nonatomic, strong) NSString * vertOriginMetricsKey;
```

```python
vertOriginMetricsKey() -> str
setVertOriginMetricsKey_(vertOriginMetricsKey: str)
```

## Discussion

When `nil`, the glyph-level metrics key can still apply.
