How do I change change patient overhead display in version 19.1.1?

In FlexSimHC, there was an option to change the patient overhead display when the patient was created. How do I do this in version 19.1.1?

Thanks

We don't currently have this functionality in 19.1. What were you hoping to display? In this new version we don't have the same activity concept as in 5.3 so we can't display the same sort of thing as we use to.

You can add text displays to patients in the flowitem bin and display any text you want as described in this article: https://answers.flexsim.com/articles/68181/showing-a-label-text-on-flow-item-object.html.

One of the primary uses I had for this feature was to identify the patients in the waiting room who had already been triaged just to give the viewer an idea of the mixture of those that had been triaged and those waiting to be triaged. I thought this was a really great feature and the primary display I chose was the size adjustable triangle. It was nice to be able to turn the overhead display off when the patient left the waiting room for the exam room.

Thanks for the user story. I'll add this to the dev list.
