Process Flow embedded in Model View

For some reason, it looks like any activity, resource, or connection lines I have created in Process Flow is also being displayed in the Model view. Also, when I run the model whatever process is occurring in the Process Flow is also being executed in the Model view which can be a little annoying at times.

The model seems unharmed at this time and this phenomenon is just a visual nuisance.

Is there a way to fix this?

Also, in the Model, is there a way to hide all of the names of my Processors?

Thank you,

Software Version:

FlexSim 23.0.2

I have not seen this before. What does the model tree look like? Did the activities somehow end up as direct subnodes of the model instead of the Process Flow?

@Adrian M, have you tried all hints of this article about graphical output issues. Primarily it looks like it is an graphic problem.

This can happen if you use current in a General Process Flow's load/unload/move activity, or by testing if current.up is an object but use = instead of ==. Either will relocate the process flow in a 3D object from /Tools/ProcessFlows and to fix it you can just find the process flow in the tree and move it back to the that folder.

I found it! How do I properly move it back to the /Tools/ProcessFlow folder?

Never mind, I got it. Below is the code I utilized:

treenode myObject = node("Inspector7/ProcessFlow", model());
treenode myLocation = node ("Tools/ProcessFlow", model());
moveobject(myObject, myLocation);
