  2. Set the height of the first image.
  3. Set the height of the subsequent images and as you do so you will see the visual guides to show it's the same height as the first and snap to that height.
  4. Continue to set the height for the other images and the guides will appear and snapping will occur an show which images the current image height has snapped to.
  5. If you want to set the height differently to the other images in the section just move beyond the snap and guide and you can set it to any height you want.
