How to obtain the scaled size of a WPF Visual element
I know lots of time passed since the question was asked but it doesn't hurt to post some more info :)
I use this code to find size (scale) of visuals with applied render transform(s).
GeneralTransform t = transformedVisual.TransformToVisual(parentVisual);
Vector topLeft = (Vector) t.Transform(new Point(0,0));
Vector topRight = (Vector) t.Transform(new Point(originalWidthOfTransformedVisual, 0));
double renderedWidth = (topRight-topLeft).Length;
double widthScale = renderedWidth / originalWidthOfTransformedVisual;
