physicsShapes can float in river, but not in waterBlock/waterPlane? why?

hi all,
what makes physicsShapes float in rivers, but not in waterBlocks or waterPlanes?
I'd like to have that functionality in waterBlocks and waterPlanes,
I cant see why they float in rivers only.
anyone?
ideas?
thanks

Most likely the water density values are initialized to different defaults. Try adjusting the waterblock density.

tried that, nothing, and if a waterBlock intersects a river, things wont float there.
might be something to do with flow magnitude? but I dont see how.
