Bug description

The height parameter does not seem to be working as expected when using absolute positioning of images. For example, the following code generates two slides with images of the same size.

---
format:
  revealjs:
    incremental: false   
---

# Test

![](image.png){.absolute top=200 left=500 height="500"}

# Test

![](image.png){.absolute top=200 left=500 height="1000"}

Here are the properties of the image I'm using:

Here is the image itself (not sure if GitHub compresses it):

Apparently, the image stops being resized if the height value is above a certain threshold. Moreover, Changing the width parameter has different behavior than changing the height. I also noticed that the image automatically appears way smaller than when using something like ![](image.png){width=60% fig-align="center"}.
