  Ansys Mechanical is installed on Red Hat 8.9. I am able to SSH using a Windows terminal with Xming. No issues. However, when accesing with a Mac and XQuartz installed, I am able to launch Workbench and launch a project but when I click on Mechanical, it times out. It will say starting Mechanical and it is not able to launch. I've made sure to use the -X flag when typing SSH, any other suggestions?

  Please see ANSYS Platform page at: https://www.ansys.com/it-solutions/platform-support
  Xming is not officially tested or supported.
  
  Additionally, all tested remote desktop environments utilize server side rendering.
  This requires a capable video card on the remote machine and software configured to utilize the hardware.
  
  You may consider installing VirtualGL and starting ANSYS applications with: vglrun
  That is a requirement when using VNC so, it may resolve Xming compatibility issues.
  
  note: this suggestion does not imply Xming support.
  
  thanks
