Flow Item in 3D Model

Hello Dear Community,

In my model, I want to put on the 3D the operators that I've created on the Flow Item Bin; "Man1" and "Man2".

These are screens of the flow item bin operators created.

However, in the 3D Model I dont know how to call or put them. When I drag the "operator" item only the default operator is placed.

Thank you in advance.

flow item bin op.fsm

Software Version:

FlexSim 21.0.0

@Esteban B2 you can directly edit/ customize operator in model window itself by selecting Custom operator in picklist option

This is referring to a single click on the Operator in the library which should give you these options:

But actually you can change the shape of operators in the QuickProperties too:

And if you want them different heights, just change that in the 3D view. Hold the left and right mouse button and click and drag the resize cones of the object.

If you want to use the flowitems you created then that's a different type of model where you introduce those into the model with a source, not click and drag.
