Formating Autoshape - Height and Width Always Blank

When I try to format an Autoshape (e.g., a rectangle) that I've added to my
presentation, it doesn't display the height or width in the Size tab. Even
after I change the settings, if I try to re-format it, I still cannot get the
height or width to display.

I usually run into this problem if I have more than one item selected and
try to edit their size. However, in this case I am just selecting one object.

Why can't I see the height or width? Has a setting changed on me that I've
missed? Every new object that I add to my slides has no height or width.
 
Are you sure that you only have one object selected? Try clicking somewhere
outside of the slide and then press the tab key until the object you want is
selected. Then go to Format > Autoshape and inspect the size dialog.

I double-checked using your method, and I verified that I am only selecting
one object. It is still coming up with no size info -- height or width. I am
puzzled.
 
I'm with Sonia. Cannot reproduce this behavior. Can you give us more
details in order to reproduce?
