Your picture contains the conveyor of the module, not the legacy conveyor object. To see the shaped or rendered version of a module conveyor you mark a conveyor, as you have done it above in the picture. Then you set in the System Properties (Quick Properties last button) under the General Tab the option Draw Render Mode to active.

Hi Elisabeth Sestili

Single Click on Conveyor > In the View Menu click the Quick properties> Then System properties > you will get General tab and under the General Tab the option Draw Render Mode to active.

@Elisabeth Sestili If you make it non accumulating it will show a belt instead of rollers and you can adapt the 3d shapes that are used in the conveyor (look at modules->Conveyor->shapes) these are AC3D shapes and if you changes them the conveyor will look different.
