What are dx and dy?

 

When I create a rectangle, or line, I frequently want to know what the size
of the rectangle is (width and height). I would have assumed that's what
"dx" and "dy" in the footer/status bar are for; however, it seems like in
all cases, they simply reflect the same values as "X" and "Y". Am I missing
something, or is this something to be fixed?

Thanks,
Duane
