@yoni A you can set an on entry trigger in the processor properties to change the object size.

@Kari Payton

THANKS, but how do you do it in a station or several stations placed on a conveyor?

Stations and Decision Points have On Arrival and On Continue triggers that are similar to the On Entry and On Exit triggers of processors.

@yoni A yea as Matthew stated.... Go into the properties on the station and add a code snippet to the on arrival trigger called setsize(object,x,y,z). I didn't see an option to change the size directly that's why I used the code snippet. changesize.fsm
