Name
playoutiter:GetCharExtents -- get character extents
Synopsis
logical_rect = playoutiter:GetCharExtents()
Function
Gets the extents of the current character, in layout coordinates. This will return a table that has the fields x, y, width, and height initialized.

Layout coordinates have the origin at the top left of the entire layout.

Only logical extents can sensibly be obtained for characters; ink extents make sense only down to the level of clusters.

Inputs
none
