In terms of morphs, in addition to height, don't forget the leg length morph. The DAZ figures tend to be pretty leggy, and shorter folks tend to have shorter legs relative to their torso (I know I do anyway)

...yeah this has been a n issue since the early days. I always had to shorten Vicky's legs to get more appropriate proportions. That is why I liked Steph 4 as she seemed more "realistically" proportioned.
I like Josie7's face and softer features but like Vicky, she's very leggy especially for a teen. In the G2 version of Growing Up, there is one slider titled "Adult Proportion" which apparently was replaced by one called "Youth Proportions Adjust" in the G3 version. The latter sort of does the same but also affects the head propagation as well.

Apparently the normal ratio for legs to height measurment is 45%, so someone who is 5 ft tall (ie 60") would on average have a 27" inside leg measurment. I am spot on with that, so as long as a style is made with 27" inside leg I can buy trousers to fit off the peg.

I believe that is where the significant difference is.
Here's what I came up with.. The 5'3" one I did by first adjusting the proportions to more normal human female and then scaling down slightly, the other one I made by overlaying G3 on a SP4 and adjusting until they matched as good as I could get them. The two are pretty similar, and I like them both more than the Height dial that comes with the G3F body morphs.
They live in Actor/Full Body/Real World.. they control overall scale, head size, and leg length. the Steph one adds in some torso and neck scaling. Pretty sure most of those dials are in the G3F body morphs so if you don't have those they won't work right.
I have a couple of those and GenX, so I can test them for you. I'll post a pic when I get a chance to do it.
*Edit...if I can get GenX to work. I'm having some issues with GenX finding any of my Genesis 2 morphs.
I'd be interested in seeing what you come up with - I have yet to buy it, I do have measure metrics so at least I can check what results I get but no GenX... Thanks!

Extremely helpful thank you Fisty! I have been using Height but not Petite, thanks for the chart that truly helps!

Also very helpful to know! thanks - 45% the 'magic' number *thumbs up*

...not on Dropbox (security reasons) so they will not download.
...thanks that worked. This will save me a lot of time adjusting proportions by hand. Also won't have to bloat the base G3F by transferring all the Steph 4 morphs through GenX.
The "Youth Body Proportions" morph in Growing Up does OK to a point but I have to keep readjusting the head size afterwards.

I will have to look at the other site to find her then ;)
Thanks!
I do not have exact measurements, but LY Emi is a few inches shorter than Mei Lin.

Thank you nice find! And she's on sale *woot*

There are other books around, but for proportions of the human body, I find this one pretty handy...(the price is right, too)

The charts are nice and clear and well laid out.

Merph.. fixing..

Thanks for this, I was having great difficulty getting petit.
My thanks as well.
Thank you very much!
Yes thank you Fisty! These morphs help tremendously!
Great resource. Thanks for linking!
Does anybody happen to have a V3 petite morph or can point me out where I can find one?
Thanks!
