I cannot get the height and width properties off objects other than Rectangles. Am I missing something here?

```
const runImages = async (selection) => {
  for(let i = 0; i < selection.items.length; i++) {
    let {constructor, width, height} = selection.items[i];
    console.log(constructor.name, `width: ${width} | height: ${height} `)
  }
}

```

If the selected object is Rectangle then  
output //  
Rectangle width: 916 | height: 571

**However, if the object is Ellipse then the  
output //**  
**Ellipse width: undefined | height: undefined**

TIA!

Only `Rectangles` have `width` and `height` properties.

For all `SceneNode` superclasses (including `Rectangles`), you can use `.localBounds.width` and `.localBounds.height` instead.
