How do I edit my Flow Item so that i can remove its head (fish)?

I want to edit my flow item so that after it passes a decision point the shape of my item has its head removed. Can this be done in FlexSim or does this get accomplished through SketchUp. I have attempted to move the colored cones for the fish in order to just remove its head and keep the body but I am unable too.It just warps the fish oddly.

FlexSim 18.1.1

Hi @Tam P

You need to prepare 3 SketchUp files, a complete fish body with head, a head, and a body. Add these shapes to Media Files, and then use "change 3d shape" and "Set Size" in OnArrival or OnContinue of Decision Point.

Hello I am unable to adjust the position and size of my headless fish. I have seen the "Size section " on the code. Can you help position the headless fish the same as the headed fish? Also of the same size.kodiak-pollock-current-00271218.fsm

sorry @Tam P I can not see the shape of headless fish(only box shape), so I can not understand what you want.
