Patran Skin GUI vs Classic GUI

[DanRan]

Hi, I my classroom some computers are running the skin and others the classic gui. Without reinstalling the software is there a way to change between the two gui systems? they are on Windows 8. Thanks

The new gui is only available in Patran 2010 and on.

Look at the Patran shortcut, right click>properties. You will notice an additional -skin for the new GUI.

New GUI: C:\MSC.Software\Patran_x64\20122\bin\patran.exe -skin
OLD GUI: C:\MSC.Software\Patran_x64\20122\bin\patran.exe
