Why is QS_UNSTRUCTURED_GUI enabled when QS_UNSTRUCTURED_SOLVER is not licensed?
-
Hello everyone,
I would like to ask for clarification regarding the unstructured LF/QS solver licensing behavior in Sim4Life.
Background
In my License Manager, the feature QS_UNSTRUCTURED_GUI is enabled, so I am able to create models using the unstructured (tetrahedral) LF/QS setup.
However, when I attempt to run an unstructured LF tutorial (Two Spheres – Unstructured LF), the simulation fails with the following message:ERROR: The license feature QS_UNSTRUCTURED_SOLVER is invalid! Please contact your help desk to add this feature license.
This suggests that I can build unstructured models, but I cannot actually run the unstructured QS solver.
My Questions
Is there any practical benefit or intended use case for having QS_UNSTRUCTURED_GUI without the QS_UNSTRUCTURED_SOLVER license?
(e.g., model preparation, visualization, compatibility, data inspection, etc.)Is this configuration expected, or does it indicate a potential licensing inconsistency?
What is the correct license feature needed to enable unstructured LF/QS simulations?
Should I be requesting the standalone QS_Unstructured Solver add-on?Additional Notes
Sim4Life version: 7.2.3.12730
The tutorial fails immediately before the solver starts.

Thank you very much for your help. Any clarification about the intended workflow or licensing requirements would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for the suggestion. I will contact the licensing team at s4l-license@zmt.swiss
with the relevant details and will update this thread once I receive their guidance.
