Is it possible to add measurements in parameters?

What are 0 and 1 representing? Is it possible to display measurements?

0 = shape key not applied at all, 1 = shape key applied fully. The measurement shape keys are no different than any other shape keys. The only difference is that in the MakeHuman UI, the scale is multiplied with the total vertex distances to give a very, very crude approximation of what it might mean in real world numbers.

In hindsight, it was probably not such a good idea to represent it down to two decimals as that gives the impression that it is something very exact, which it by far isn't. Further, if you set it to, say 20 cm and then change a macro target such as muscularity, the exact same target weight suddenly means something else.

But to answer the question: yes, it would be possible to add the same scale multiplication. But before doing that, I'd like to figure out some way to avoid the same confusion as what have arisen around the makehuman UI counterpart.

As it stands, it is just more consistent and blenderish to treat all shape keys the same: They are on a scale of not applied at all to fully applied.

@joepal1976 Actually, I want the approximated value of height, weight, length of some segments, and so on, but I don't them in the add-on...
