The Open Window
When you choose Open From from the File menu or press Ctrl+Shift+O, the Open window opens. In that window, you can choose from the following options:
•
Click Clipboard () to open a database model when the clipboard contains a valid database model location string. Such a string can, for example, be obtained by selecting Copy Location from the context menu for a model in the Model Manager workspace.
•
Click Recent () to list recently opened models in the list to the right. Type a filter text in the text field above the list of recent models to filter that list to only include models with names that match the text. Select a model and click Open () to open the model in the COMSOL Desktop. If the file is a COMSOL app, click Run () to launch and run the app directly. To control how many recently opened files that are displayed, specify a value in the Maximum number of recent files field (default: 20) on the Files > Recent page in the Preferences window.
