Question about "Sizing Applies Time Stretch"

Say you have a part of an audio file. You switched the pointer to “Sizing Applies Time Stretch” and you started playing with that part to make it longer or shorter to match something else, like a clip in another track. But you went back and forth , and you didn’t resize it to a plain integer length, like half or twice the length. You resized it until you got the result you needed.

But then you need to know how much you changed the length, whether it’s a percentage or something else. Does it show anywhere how much was it resized in length? I couldn’t find anything in the manual about this specifically, only on the panel that gives you all the options for time stretch, but not when you use the “Sizing Applies Time Stretch” pointer.

You can immediately see the change in length in the info line, so marking the length before and after you will have the difference.
Furthermore you can open the time stretch process and enter the resulting length taken from the info line and compare it to the original length (as it always shows that info). That will tell you the change in samples, BPM, and stretch ratio. Specifically for BPM you can input a different tempo than 120 at the original field (if you know the value) and will always give you the resulted BPM.
Hope that helps, cheers

*EDIT:
Wait I just realized that the video is not showing the popup window for the time stretch process so I am uploading a ss.

Perfect, thanks!
