      I am working on static structural and trying to add sciprts on command window. After inserting "command" as shown in the picture, command window should pop-up. However, it only shows a label "command" on right corner. I am not able to write a script. I'm seeking for a help. 

      Thank you.

      To fix the issue with the APDL command window, follow these steps:

      • Set the environment variable ANSYS_MECHANICAL_USE_WEBKIT = 1 in your user windows environment variables.
      • Restart Workbench.

      Thank you for your response. I have created the environment variable and restarted the workbench. However, the command window still not show up. Are there any other possible solutions?
