Re: how to view selection size?

10 years ago or more I had an old Logitech scanner and its bundled program 
let me do this. But sadly this function is not available in PS. After you 
release your selection you will  be shown the size. But not while doing
the 
selection.

I hope someone can prove me wrong (again).

Note: virtually all my files are camera RAW so I am doing my crop in
Bridge. 
As soon as I finish dragging and release the mouse button it tells me the 
pixel dimensions of the selection. I too wish it would show the dims in
real 
time *while* dragging as you asked.
