Problem

This is something I always wondered about but never really asked. Say I have a rectangle box, image or other element in photoshop, when I make the desired element active and I check the info panel, The width / height never shows up - Should it?

Fix for: How to get the width / height of an element in Photoshop?

Low Risk

When you make a selection, the 'Info' panel should show the width (W:) and height (H:) of the selection. It has to be the active selection, though. Note: The active selection "marching ants" don't show up in the screen capture.
