The Bounding Box command (Detail > Measure > Measure > Bounding Box) displays size and center position information for foreground layers.
Clicking OK will replace the layer(s) with a corresponding bounding box. Use this command to create stand-ins for complex objects, which can be replaced for the final rendered animation.
