How to change the 3D shape from libraries?

Hi,

I would like to change the 3D shape of a Processor, but it's empty in C:\Program Files\FlexSim 2021 Update 1\libraries.

Is it because of version difference? My Version is 21.1.2.

How could I find these built in 3D shapes?

Thank you!

FlexSim is not ARENA.

program directory\fs3d are shapes of objects

I find 3D shapes here(program directory\fs3d).

But it seems that there's only one kind of Processor shape in this file.

So if I need different Processors that symbolize different machine,

I can only differ Processor appearance by changing Processor color?

thank you for your answer!

There is no inventory of shapes in FlexSim. There is a huge mass of supported 3D import file formats. There are several repositories in the net. There you will probably find a shape.

The shape of an object is an option of the general object property panel.
