If the trait was just regular incomplete dominance, all the children would be moderately short because the wife would have both dominant alleles to be normal hight, NN, and the man, being shorter than his already short mother, presumably has both recessive alleles, nn. So if you were to set up the punnett square with NN x nn, it would have all four possible combinations be Nn. Since this is incomplete dominant, the genotypes combine to produce moderately short offspring, ones that are not quite as short as the father, but not as tall as the mother. However, the trait is sex-linked, so it would be on the X chromosome of the man. So he is X^nY, while the wife is X^NX^N. So the daughters would be X^NX^n, moderately short, while the sons would get the unaffected Y from the father, and the dominant X^N from the mother. The sons would be normal.
