Hello,

I've just downloaded the new 2021 Student version of HyperWorks and I see that it still has the legacy UI.

Has the new UI not been implemented for the Student release? Or there is a possibility to choose between UIs?

Thanks in advance!

    You need to install the HyperWorks bundle, after the installation you will see the following apps in the start menu

    HyperWorks 2021 is the new HW X interface, it starts with the HyperMesh application, and the application can be changed in the menu

    HyperWorks Desktop 2021 will open the classic interface, it also starts with the HyperMesh application, and the application can be changed in the client selector
