Hello,
I am trying to change conveyor start point using custom code and reading values from global table for one of my models. The issue I am facing is, the conveyor has entry point at the start for inserting flow items from a queue. however, while changing the Start.x position of conveyor using in process flow, the entry point disappears/does not apper at correct entry location (aka the start of conveyor)
How can I fix this?

Hi @Aditya S2! I looked at your model and I'm not seeing that issue happen (I also checked and I'm using the same version of FlexSim as you are)... See the attached GIF:
When I run it the entry point moves along to the front as that shows
On a different note, I am also trying to change the conveyors other properties (specifically: speed, entry/moving and stopping space from global tables). Is there a manual where I can see the custom codes to use to set these parameters?
@Aditya S2 You can check out the docs page! Here's the link to the website (specifically the conveyor coding page):
https://docs.flexsim.com/en/23.1/Reference/CodingInFlexSim/FlexScriptAPIReference/Conveyor/Conveyor.html
I dont see any references to how to change the move, stop and entry space padding. Is there a specific command I can use to change those values for conveyors using values from global table?
