Is there any chance of getting a small table showing part size in studs vs. inches
vs. centimeters? It could be a permanent pop-up / hoverable UI element.

Parts needed are, at a minimum, one brick, one plate, and one (1/2 or 3/4) technic
pin/connector.

Dimensions needed are height, length, & width (if different).

Anything else?

Why??? Please use standard measures and forget the rest.

See, I'm 181 bricks height, ha!


Also, please don't hope any BrickLink Suggestion being implemented as of
right now - or for a few years. At best they're ignored (99.9999999%) or
worst it'll be terribly buggy.

PS: wow you registered on 2000? Unbelievable. Thanks staying with us, really!

My statistics say otherwise.
Out of my 13 suggestions 2 were discarded, 10 are still open and ONE WAS IMPLEMENTED!
(first picture)

The suggestion I made in 2015 was implemented, and everyone benefits from it
to this day! So, remember that before 2015, all spam posts remained in the forum.

The RebrickMat available on rebrickable is a lovely resource for this sort of
thing. I really love mine.
