I might be blind but i can’t seem to find this option anywhere. I’ve just started using unreal for a class, and everything i put into the engine has to be in real world sizes (cm). I cant seem to find where you can see the length-width-height of any of the objects in the engine. Is this possible?

Hi!

If you open the object editor, you can see the base properties of the mesh.

Also you can use measure tools in orthographic viewports. Place mouse cursor in the start, press and hold middle mouse button and move cursor to the end.

is there a way to show the absolute size of the mesh(es) in the details panel as well ?
