Default Stacking of loaded pallet in queue

Hi all,
I have attached a model in which pallet and flow items from separate sources are combined and stacked to a queue.
while stacking loaded pallets(with flow item) on stacking queue the pallets get stacked as shown in the model (only pallets gets stacked one above other without considering the flow items).
But what is needed is loaded pallets has to stacked in such a way that the pallets+flow items as a whole has to be stacked one above other.

Dear Jorg,
Is there any other method available to achieve this.
Because in a large queue to be filled with loaded pallets, vertically and horizontally how this can be achieved using setloc(). Throw me some light on this.

Another solution could be to set a new size for the pallet and customize the shape factor and location. Have a look in the OnExit-Trigger in the combiner.

The example is in flexsim v6.

This is the solution of Jörg. Have a look in the OnEntry-Trigger of the queue.
