shows the number of objects

FlexSim Express shows the number of objects.

But after applying the license, this display disappears.
Can't I always see the number of objects in my licensed FlexSim?

If you want to see the object limit window without needing to de-activate and re-activate your license, you can check out the feature through the License Activation window (in the License Server tab):

You will have to reopen your windows (View > Open Default Workspace) for the object limit window to re-appear, but this would allow you to have a "FlexSim Express" experience while still being fully licensed.

This is a feature available for express license, because there is a limit of 30 Objects in a model. Other licenses aren't limited to insert objects in a model. The chart is not necessary and restricts the space of library and toolbox.

I know that.
What I want to know is that I need to show the number of objects as an aggregate of business tasks.

anonymous user, what @joerg.vogel explained is correct in that the object count only shows up in FlexSim's Express version, because generally it doesn't matter to Enterprise license users how many objects they use.

You can count the number of objects in your model using this code:

int numObjects = model().subnodes.length;

@tanner.p your expression only counts the number of 'top level' objects in the model.

The Model Limit includes all objects at any level. Looking at how that panel does it, the easiest way to find it seems to be

int numObjects = applicationcommand("getmodellimit", 1);
