FloWorks object scaling

I have a model that uses km as the length units. I can add Tanks, Sinks, Sources, Mixers, etc. just fine, and their sizes seem entirely reasonable.

But if I add any type of Flow Processor, the object itself is ridiculously big. And if I add a Flow Pipe, the pipe is reasonably sized, but the arrow indicating the direction of flow is gigantic.

I can manually resize each of these objects after inserting them, but it's quite frustrating to have to do it every time I want to add a Flow Processor. Is there a way to avoid these objects being so oversized? (Unfortunately, I cannot change the Model Units to metres, as I am working in a pre-existing model.)

Hi @Jeremy R ,

Thank you again for finding this bug. We will fix this in the next release which should be out in the beginning of next week. There is no direct easy work around for this right now, our apologies for that.
