ANSYS SpaceClaim: I recently upgraded my Keyshot 5 to 6. My Keyshot 5 was working fine as a Spaceclaim add on but now I can not get it to work inside the program from the tab bar.

      KeyShot 6 should work with no problems. You may need to check your windows environment variables to make sure the following items are present: 1. If you’re using a stand alone installation of KeyShot, you can skip this, but if your license also contains your KS license, this should be present and point to the installation folder: KEYSHOT_EXTERNAL_LICENSE_FOLDER C:Program FilesSpaceClaim 2017 2. This one needs to be present and point to the KeyShot folder. It might not be the exact file path shown below. KEYSHOT6: C:UsersPublicDocumentsKeyShot 6 To access the environment variables, click the Windows Start menu and search for “environment”. You should see and option to Edit System Environment Variables. Click Environment Variables, then look at the bottom window. You should also make sure you are installing with full administrator privileges, and that no antivirus or security settings are blocking changes to the Windows registry, as KeyShot will try to add some items.
