Attaching objects to body

[DebbieAnn Fairplay]

Is there another part of the body I can attach an object that will have the same effect as it does if I attach it to the lower leg?

The same effect?  You can attach any object to any attachment point on your body.  I often move a skirt from my pelvis attachment point to my stomach, for instance, if I want it to sway a little differently. If the object's position needs to be adjusted, you can do that with your Edit tools, manipulating the object with the colored arrows and rotation circles just as you would if the object were on the ground. When you detach the object, it will return to your inventory and remember exactly where you relocated it.  Any scripts in the object will behave just as they did at the original attachment point.

ETA: When you choose a new attachment point, the object will follow any movements of the part of your body that it is attached to. So, if you attach an ankle bracelet to your wrist, it will behave like a wrist bracelet -- just as it would in RL.  Is that what you meant by "the same effect?"

No other attachment point will move in the same way as the lower-leg.  You can attach more than one object at a time to that point though

[Rolig Loon]

Well, the foot will almost mimic the lower leg's movement, so long as you don't have an animation that points your toes.

You can attach more than one object at a time to that point though <<<<< How?

[Rolig Loon]

To wear multiple attachments on a single attachment point, find an additional attachment in your inventory, right-click it, and select ADD or ATTACH TO. ADD works similarly to WEAR, but does not replace existing attachments.

[DebbieAnn Fairplay]

yes, I want it to move as if its attached to the leg but attach it to another part of the body, because I want it to be worn even if the person iw searing a boot.

Then I think your only option is to hope that your customer is using a viewer that supports multiple attachments on a single attachment point. As I noted in a different comment, you might get away with attaching it to the foot (if there's nothing else there), but ankle movements will make that problematic.
