Optimal Palletizing and operator moving around pallet

palletizing-process.fsm

Is there an easy way to have the operator go around the queue when he places boxes on the far side of the queue? Also, I would want the boxes to be stacked up optimally.

There isn't an easy way doing what you want to do, because you have to evaluate the size of the object, the size, location and rotation of the shape, the attributes of the draw surrogate objects of the item. All this has to be done with the object you want to place and the previous already placed object. There are only simple methods placing items in the queue or on an item.

How to get a parameter that talks about the height of the loaded boxes in the queue. For example, I want to end the loading process when the height of the boxes is more than 2 meters.

Items are objects. You can look for the properties of objects to get the size and the location.

FlexScript Class Reference tree object

If you want to get references of items inside the tree or inside of objects you look for the properties of the treenode class, for example "last"
