Creating a new instance removes graph's attached objects

Hi flexsim,

I'm having some problem with istances and dashboards.


I imported a processor into my model and created an istace of it. Then I added a state graph in a dashboard and I connected the graph with both processors, the original one and its instace.

Everything is fine so far.

Now, when I create a new istance of the processor the object attached to the graph are updated and all the istacess are removed, only the original processor remain attacched.

Is it a bug?
Are there some solutions or alternatives to prevent this from happening?

I attach the model.

Istances and Bashboards.fsm


Thank you

I can't say if this is a bug or intended. But as a workaround you can add Processor1 to a group and refer to the group in the chart. All instances of Processor1 should also automatically be part of the group.

This is a bug - we'll add a case for it - thanks for pointing it out.

You can avoid it by just copy/pasting the instance instead of using the template '+' option to create instances.
