I made a while ago a control panel which does just that - displays
interactively the rect and width/height of an object being resized in a
stack. The condition to work is the control panel to be a palette. The
script is something like:

on openCard
getRect
end openCard

on getRect
 put the rect of selectedObject() into fld "objRect"
send "getRect" to me in 2 ticks
end getRect
