Thanks, I did not know of this.
Holding the alt key gives the current XY pixel position of the cursor, but it does not provide any way to view the pixel width and height of selections, which is my main objective.
It seems straightforward to change the source code to get what I need, but then I need to redo that after any new update of ImageJ. If I patch parts of the ImageJ source code, is there some tool I can use to and re-use those changes later, in a semi-automated way? I am not very experienced in maintaining java code changes. I know how to compile plugins as well as changing existing plugins, but my experience in Java ends about there.

Hi Stein,
if you hold the [Alt] key, the uncalibrated pixel coordinates are shown in the status bar. It is important to move the cursor after pushing down the [alt] key to update the status bar.
The method getLocationAsString() at line 2158 of ImagePlus [1] creates the status message. On the fly, I don't know a method to change this, without modifying the source code of ImageJ.
Best regards
Michael
