FlexSimPy doesnt show GUI

Got the FlexSimPy going and through execution nodes with flexscript can pretty much control anything which is nice. But, no matter if i put True or False in the showGUI the gui doesnt launch. It would be nice for debugging purpose and also I cant trigger a recording without the gui running it seems (which kinda makes sense I guess). Any suggestions on how to debug?

controller = fp.launch(evaluationLicense=True, showGUI=True, programDir=pDir)

Software Version:

FlexSim 24.1.0

FlexSim doesn't even appear as its own process - I doubt it's going to render the interface like that. Perhaps one of the developers can comment.

No need to dive into it for now. Was just wondering if I did something obviously wrong. What puzzled me was that the showGUI option was there. That kinda hints at it having an effect whether its set to true or false:)

Hey @Guldberg, this has been confirmed to be a bug (or possibly an unfinished feature). The showGUI option currently doesn't change anything.

It's been reported to the developers, so there may be some sort of GUI in the future, but showGUI doesn't show anything for the time being.
