Introduction

Currently, opening multiple instances of Studio Pro on Mac is not possible, unlike Studio Pro for Windows (by double-clicking on the Studio Pro icon). This article explains how to overcome this limitation.

Environment

Studio Pro for Mac (beta)

Instructions/Procedure

It is possible to open multiple Studio Pro instances on Mac from the terminal by the following command: 

open -n -a "Studio Pro version 10.xx.x.Build-Beta.app"

For example, for Studio Pro 10.15.0 the command is as follows:

open -n -a "Studio Pro 10.15.0.46408-Beta.app"

The build can be found:

• by hovering over the Studio Pro icon
• by clicking on the Studio Pro version in the Mendix Portal (see screenshot below)

Outcome

Openin Studio Pro from the terminal allows multiple instances to be opened on Mac.
