Geometry tab shows the SpaceClaim option but not the DesignModeler one

      Hi,


       


      I've recently installed ANSYS on my laptop.  However when I right click on geometry tab I only get SpaceClaim showing up.  See image below:-



      In Workbench I also went in Tool > Options > Geometry Import and changed the preferred geometry editor to DesignModeler.  However SpaceClaim still opens up when I click on geometry tab and DesignModeler still doesn't appear when I right click.


      During installation I couldn't see any options for DesignModeler in the geometry interface section.


      Any help would be much appreciated


      Thanks in advance

      Which version? 2020R1 is latest version. 


      Anyway, we usually now go ahead with SpaceClaim. You can use SpaceClaim and if you face any issues, you can post questions on this community. 


      Regards,
