Missing the MgDyn2D Solver in Elmer FEM 9.0 GUI MPI

Hello dear community,

I am trying to do a Elmer FEM tutorial, but I am still missing the MgDyn2D Solver in the Equations Window.

My installation: Elmer FEM GUI MPI (Windows)

The only available solvers are "Electrostatics" "Heat Equation" "Helmholz Equation" "Linear Elasticity" "Mesh Update" "Navier-Stokes" and "Result output". Did I missed something to install?

Thank you and best regards

In the elmer directory, under share, ElmerGUI there is and edf folder and an edf-extra folder.
the magdyn xmls are in the edf-extra by default, if you copy them to the edf folder they will then show up in ElmerGUI.

Yes, the idea is that the GUI is sort of easily programmable. You place the XML files that you need under edf directory. Putting everything there would eventually overcrowd the menus. -Peter
