Sample a 3D shape in the library

[ClairAu]

[ FlexSim 23.1.1 ]

In FlexSim 23.0.7, you can use the sampler to pick a 3D shape in the library:

In FlexSim 23.1.1, you can't.

Has this been removed on purpose ?

It wasn't removed on purpose, it looks like it's not behaving the same way because of the changes to let you choose different processor shapes.

I'll add a case to the dev list to discuss if this is a feature we want to maintain going forward.

[ClairAu]

Please maintain this feature.

It looks like this hasn't been working for the other sections of the library for a long time.

Also, in 23.1 the drop down arrow next to that shape field was improved so that you can easily pick basic shapes.

Hi Jeanette, I will accept the answer when @Matthew Gillespie will give me feedback about "if this is a feature they want to maintain going forward".

By the way you should change your comment "you can always unaccept", it's not true, once you auto-accept an answer we cannot unaccept it. I'll forward you an email from @Ben Wilson about this.

@Clair A This issue has been fixed in 23.0.8 and 23.1.2 released today
