arrange items on a combiner
FlexSim 17.0.0
In packing mode, the item which enters the combiner through inport port 1 acts as a container.
If the item which enters the combiner through port 1 is a container flowitem, like a pallet or a tote, you will see that other flowitems will be packed correctly on the pallet or inside the tote.
If the item which enters the combiner through port 1 is a basic flowitem, like a box, you will see that other flowitems will not be packed correctly on the box because the box is not a container flowitem.
Until Flexsim 16.2.2 you can find in the Properties of the flowitems in the Flowitem Bin the Container tab with Option field for Pack Contents. These Options are still there, but you have to activate them in the modeltree. It is easier to install an older Flexsim Version to see how these different methods works. Or you can look for the keyword palletentry here in the Forum to find some answers, too.
Another option is to add a New Container Flowitem in the Flowitem Bin and change its shape (for example, a box). You then have the available options for packing methods.
