how change the color of processor when it is working with processflow.?

Hi, my problem is that I need to change the processor's performance if it is working or not, but for my model to work, I am using subflows since I have 3 processors that do the same functions. My simulation should receive 10 boxes in the queue one and then send to two and then to three. Someone could help me ? picture

Hey @jessica S2

Are you asking if you can change the color of a processor if you are using it in process flow? If so, you can use a Change Visual object in Process Flow.

In this example I Acquire a resource and assign it to token.resource, and then you choose the color in the next box.

Please let me know if this answers your question, and tag me @Braydn T if you have any more questions.

Hello @Braydn T

thanks, how can I rest to the original color?. I explain when the simulation starts the processor is green, if when running the simulation the processor is not used it should change to red, if it works it should be orange, and try with a decision but with the rest it does not return to green.

I can change the original color to red and that when simulation running change the color, only needed reset the color when reset the simulation

I hope you can help me

attached my simulation and picture.

If you are doing just that, you don't really need to do it in process flow. You can use triggers on the Processor. You would use an On Reset trigger to change it back to green at the start, a On Entry trigger to change it to orange, and then an On Exit trigger to change it to red.

THANKS @Braydn T ❤️

ok I understand that this is easier in 3D, but only as a question this is possible to do in process flow ??

You can do most of it in Process Flow. You will have to create a group of processors, and event triggered sources with the change visual I showed you earlier. You would have a separate Process Flow with a On Entry event triggered source, and another with a On Exit. You would still need a on reset trigger in the processor.
