Hi, it would be great if GC could show the width and height of the selected area when selecting a rectangle, like in the attached screenshot of another program.

That is already supported. Just check:

Thank you very much! It does work. Problem solved.

On my machine (in German, with the latest beta version), the menu looks a bit different than in your screenshot, and it's not very intuitive IMHO. "Linie, Rechteck, Kreis: Zeigen während der Erzeugung" -- It's not clear what will be shown when that option is activated. A line? A rectangle? A circle? The English text "Display size" is more clear. Just my 2 cents. I'm still a newbie.

Thanks - I will improve the localization.

And if I may advertise GraphicConverter has only recently perfected selection:
• interaction: [Fixed] Inline Selection Info does not move while selection moves
• styling: introduced fancy new appearance style [Added] Round dots in system accent color like the one Preview.app uses
