Measuring a Shape in Local Coordinates
The function described in this section allows you to measure the size of a shape as it appears in its view ports--in local coordinates, after its transform mapping has been applied. Other QuickDraw GX functions are available to measure shapes in other contexts:

To determine a shape's bounding rectangle in global coordinates, use the GXGetShapeGlobalBounds function, described on page 7-125.
To determine a shape's bounding rectangle on a view device, use the GXGetShapeDeviceBounds function, described on page 7-116.
To determine a shape's bounding rectangle in geometry-space coordinates, use the GXGetShapeBounds function, described in the geometric operations chapter of Inside Macintosh: QuickDraw GX Graphics.
