@Suhas H2

Are you able to post your model? If so we can better help you with your problem in specific.

There are 2 ways you might be able to do this. First, at the top of the screen click on View -> Find Objects and then on the right side of your screen you will see a location to place a value and click Find. Depending on your situation you might be able to click on the label or id and the search for a red outlined box which you can click on and it will highlight the item in the model.

Thanks for the reply @zachary.h

I tried accessing a flowitem using Model.find(tostring(uniqueid of item)) this didnot work for me.

Do you have any other command to access flowitem using its unique id?
