Hi David, Not sure of the exact nature of your setup but it just occured to me that the simplest way to do this would be if you could enclose the rotated clip in a wrapper clip - if you get the _width and _height of the wrapper clip after rotating the enclosed tip you will have the width of imaginery bounding box.
Does this help? Adrian P. On 3/20/06, David Stiller <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > I suspect the answer to this one is purely geometry.
