using multiple Comsol Windows simultaneously on Mac OS

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

Hi,

until now I was unable to use multiple Comsol Windows simultaneously on Mac OS. Is that feature only available with the Windows version?

Regards,
Denis

Hi,

Hello,

You can run a new instance by using the following command in the Terminal.

open -na "COMSOL Multiphysics.app"

Procedure to open from COMSOL installation directory:

1.- Open Terminal
2.- Go to your COMSOL Directory example: "cd /Applications/COMSOL44"
3.- Use the command : "open -n "COMSOL Multiphysics.app"

Done a new instance should be running. You can do the same for other versions of COMSOL.

Kind Regards,
