Default how to control the output flow item in Comniner...

I want to know the solutions about followings in Combiner object;

(1) I want to control the attributes of the ouput item in Combiner object according to the input#2 port item attributes.
The attributes are the shape, label (num and str) and itemtype etc.

(2) I want to control the conditional port of it according to input#2 item attributes.


I tested them using the attached model.
But I found some issues in combiner two mode of Pack and Join.

1) In pack mode, the output item attribute is changable according to the item from port#2 but the output shape of packed item like assembled fully is not changable. And the attributes of input#2 item can be read.

2) In Join mode, the attributes of input#2 item can't be read.
So the output item can not be controlled according to the input#2 item attributes.
And so I can't use the conditional output port according to the input#2 item attributes.

I want to change the output packed or joined shape and attributes and control the output port according to the port#2 item attributes.

How can I control it?

I need the expert's help.

Hello Syseo,

in join mode the joined items don't exist in the model anymore. Try it for your own, if you store the item as a number and look for this item at the OnExit-Trigger, the object doesn't exists in the model.
If you want to use all attributes on the OnExit trigger store them at the combiner or somewhere else.
And I haven't any problems changing the shape of packed items on the OnExit trigger.
