A simple device to judge your avatars actual height according to the SL scale. This is simply a 3 meter tall prim with a scale on the sides. The prim is a phantom meaning you can stand "inside" it to better judge your height. That's all it does.
PLEASE READ THE FIRST PARAGRAPH CAREFULLY BEFORE YOU DOWNLOAD AND WRITE CRAP REVIEWS OF THIS FREE ITEM.
The SL viewer and user-created height detectors does NOT give you the correct height of your avatar. This is because they use an attribute called llAgentHeight which does not actually show the avatar height. What this means is that avatars are actually taller than what the Viewer says in edit shape mode. Some attempts have been made to compensate for the error in scripts, but to the best of my knowledge there is no way to determine the exact height so they remain estimates.

I use this in my store to give customers a simple way to figure out how tall they are and it's released for free to promote the creation of properly scaled merchandise in SL.
I'm not giving support on this (it's a prim, duh) but if you have any comments feel free to IM me.

Spot on! 10/10
I've found this scale by Nadia and the "[OO] Avatar Ruler - precise height detector" by Oriolus Oliva to be the most accurate height rulers, both of them measure the same and are free but are visually different; I use both of them together, side by side. Make sure you are not wearing any shoes (LL shoes nor mesh shoes) and your hover height is set to 0.00 before measuring.
There are instances where the "[OO] Avatar Ruler" script is off (because your mesh avatar is vastly different in height from your transparent LL body), that's where you can use both of these to visually look and see if it lines up. Measure twice, do it right!
It's a game changer to set proper heights for my avatars, buildings and furniture using these!
Perfect !
I don't know if I am not using it right or if this doesn't use any script but it also makes it mess free.
I simply stand next to it, look at the result like I would IRL, and it works perfectly, on top of looking exactl like a meter would. No fuss, no mess, yet quality good enough to read and cute and realistic.
A simple that does its job to perfection, even though it is free.
Makes me want to visit the in world store.
Thank you Nadia,
100% would recommend !!
Simple and accurate
The only thing that I had to add to this was a meters to feet calculator. It works as intended and I checked it against another much more expensive real height meter and the two were a half meter apart. I highly recommend this. Oh and the price is just too good.
simple but efficient
work nice
need a reverse color variant
Works Great!
Just stand right next to it and measure your height.
It's that simple!
simple and great
a way to see how tall u REALLY are, great.
