Adding Plane into FlowItems

Hi,

I want to add a plane into Flowitem as the following video does.

https://youtu.be/3AQ-cjOS9tY?list=PLWbAIKCm4gG9NsgqVQEJsX37hbZCtQNGl&t=296

But I cannot add a plane with an error like

"exception: FlexScript exception: VIEW:/active/MainPanel/BackPanel/SplitterXPane/ToolTabPane/TabControl/LibraryIconGrid/GroupIconGrid>variables/visibilityLists/shapes/onDrag i: VIEW:/active/MainPanel/BackPanel/SplitterXPane/SplitterYPane/TabPane/TabControl/AnimationEditor/EditorPanel/BottomPanel/Left"

I think my version (FlexSim 24.1.0) causes the problem. I attached the file (addingPlane.fsm).

Thank you.

Software Version:

FlexSim 24.1.0

flowitem plane 24.1.0

Where are you pulling the Plane from since it's not shown any more in the animation editor library.

Can you give us a step by step guide to how you're generating the exception?

I attached the sequence that I used to make the exception.

Interesting - for me the plane is missing from the library:

Hey @WooRam_KIM, the Plane was removed from the flowitembin in v23.2; however, it wasn't removed from the animations library until v24.0.4 and v24.1.1. You can use basically any other shape and flatten it to look like a plane (e.g., the Queue, Pallet, Tote, etc).

Hello @WooRam_KIM,

The plane was removed from the flow item library in 24.0. That is why you are getting the error. I will notify them that the plane shows up in the steps you provided.

try it with a copy of a pallet or tote. Then you have at least an activated stacking algorithm.
