Quick way of measuring image size
by Joe Maller on 16 Jul, 2003 02:06, Applies to: FCP 4.0 from:

BoundsOf simply measures an image buffer and returns its dimensions as a four-point polygon. This can be used instead of DimensionsOf, height and width can later be discovered through simple subtraction.

Use a pre-defined four-point array to hold the result:
point somepoly[4];
