Sudden change of avatar height !
needs info
Naru Darkwatch
As of the latest update, about two weeks ago, avatars suddenly became shorter when you went into edit mode and looked at how tall they were. I have confirmed this with at least 10 people. All of them who were 1,75 cm tall are now 1,65 cm tall, and those who were 1,60 cm tall are now 1,50 cm tall. Nobody has made any changes to their avatars; only the height measurement has changed.

The hover height was an issue back in 2019. Got fixed but came back this year. Not the updates fault. It's on secondlife side, not the viewer.

I believe this is due to changes in 7.1.7.8974243247 - Maintenance-X which included a fix for jira-archive-internal#67771 [SL-17597] AV height in Shape dialog IS WRONG. In general it caused heights to appear lower. I did some light testing and the new heights appear to be more accurate as compared to objects in world.

Hi Naru.
In Second Life, please open the Help menu > About Second Life, click the Copy to Clipboard button at the bottom of that window, then paste it into a comment here.
The latest Release viewer 7.1.8.9375512768 - Materials Featurettes (https://releasenotes.secondlife.com/viewer/7.1.8.9375512768.html) has a fix for a height bug
so what you are seeing may be related. I want to understand where the bug is seen before importing it.
