Trouble Changing the task executer graphic

I'm currently trying to change the transporter into a flat bed truck and I have modified the truck item from the flow item bin into a flat bed but whenever I try to use the flat bed truck image it doesn't work. Is there a good way to change the graphic into the flat bed that I want?

Are you using the General Properties to change the 3D model you're working with? Knowing your current method will help us troubleshoot.

So what I did was change the graphics of the truck in the flow item and then used the general properties tab in the transporter to try and do it that way but that doesn't seem to be working.

It could be a problem with the 3D model you're using. Would you be able to upload the 3D model file? Then we can try to upload it and see what is happening.

It looks like your transporter has successfully blossomed into a yellow semi-truck. Were you hoping it would look different?

I might not be accessing the image I want correctly but I want it to be the flat bed truck that I modified in the flow item bin which is what I am unsure about the process of doing that

Ah, I misunderstood your question. I'll get feedback from a colleague and see what could work.

To use your flatbed flowitem as a task executer you can copy and paste it from your flow item bin. I replaced your truck in the model with the flatbed in the model below.
