Changing to custom shape in Mass Flow Units does not show shape in conveyor.

Hi,


Changing to a custom shape in .skp or .dae format and adding it to the Mass flow unit Item shape does not show any content (visually) in the Mass flow conveyor although in the statistics there is content flowing through.

This feature doesn't currently work with skp files. It should work fine with dae files though. Do you have a dae file that doesn't work?

Opening this file ( model.dae ) in another big model that I have does not work (same version), but opening it in the small model that I attached and putting it into the flow units works properly. So I'm not sure what is going on.

We've had reports recently where shapes seem to be missing if the system resources are low - could you check that you have enough memory in the PC?

I checked running/stopped it is only 15% CPU used and 35% Memory.
