Default Distance from Shower door to ceiling

I installed a new bathtub, and shower assembly and shower door. I need
to know now much distance I need between the top of the shower door
and ceiling for the moisture to vent from the shower assembly. I have
about 5 inches from the top of the shower door to the top of the
shower assembly. I have about 2 foot from the top of the shower door
to the ceiling, I am thinking of building the 2 foot section in, and
leaving about 5 inches between the shower door and shower assembly,
but want to make sure I have enough room to let the moisture to vent.
I hope I am explaining this so you know what I am writing about.


So of the two foot 5 inch distance, the top 2 feet will be boxed in
and the bottom 5 inches will be open.

I don't take showers or hot baths, so this is not an issue for me, but
for those who want venting, I would have expected the vent to be at
the top. But since I have no experience with humidity, what do I
know?
