How to select the release version to launch pygeometry?

I am using this code

release = "251"
modeler = pygeometry.launch_modeler(mode="discovery", hidden=True, version=release)

but in the processes I see that instead Discovery 2025 R2 gets started. How can I ensure the selected version gets started?

Solution is to use the argument "product_version" instead and assigning the release number as integer value:

release= 251
modeler = pygeometry.launch_modeler(mode="discovery", hidden=True, product_version=release)

This is currently getting fixed. In future "version" will be consistently used same as for PyFluent etc.

@Holger Grotjans

Do you have the 2025R2 version? As far as I know, it hasn't been released yet.

Try to change "hidden = False", then discovery will be opened in GUI mode, Verify it

Hello @Naveen Kumar Begari , yes I have a Preview of 2025 R2 installed and this is what is getting started. But
version="251"
should not start any other version then the selected, correct?
