I would highly appreciate if this program was able to run on Mac OS X. Are there any plans for this? I am a new user so I wouldn't really know the direction this project is going.

As it is a .Net application, it all depends on the .Net implementation on OS X.
A project I assume will pull strings, would be Mono. (Download here).

I don't know how to run it on OS X. But in Linux, you run the command "mono appname.exe". In OS X I assume some handler will appear (Running all files of a specific extension as, equivalent in Windows).

Try it, report back :P

True.

I've tried to run SMath Studio on MAC OS X 10.5.4 using Mono 2.0 some time ago, but had no success. Mono for this OS has some inconsistencies, as I understood. But, maybe for last releases of Mac OS X and Mono this problems are not actual - try this.

So I used mono to open Smath on Mac OS X Snow Leopard and it worked fine. It seem to lag a bit in opening the program, but once it opened, it was functioning well. Good

The beauty of .Net. Anything that runs Mono, will also run .Net apps Good

Great news! Salazar, may I ask you to make screnshot(s) of running SMath Studio on Mac OS X like those represented on the SMath Studio download page? I will put it with the other pictures. And it will be useful for other users if you will provide numbers of versions of OS and Mono.
Thank you for the information.

Мда... есть над чем поработать. Большое спасибо за видео, в одной из линукс сборок наблюдал такой же высоченный тулбар и падение при печати, думал, что встретил уникальную ситуацию. Теперь очевидно, что стоит вернуться к этой сборке и решить проблему раз и навсегда!

Да там и не только с тулбаром проблема, там с перерисовкой окна какие то проблемы тоже, при перемещении не обновляется сразу, только если подергать...

I just tried installing latest mono release (2.10) and smath ( 0.95.4594) (and OSX 10.8.3 and x windows installed using homebrew) but got an error on startup.
Perhaps is it only a matter of testing ?

mono ./SMathStudio_Desktop.exe

I recall having something like those errors when trying Slacko (Puppy based on Slackware repository). They did not include the library libgdiplus. You can try to install it from your repo.
Also try to update Mono searching for "mono-complete", "libmono" or "mono cil"


Edit:

I suggested the developer to provide download links of Mono compiled to run SMath, he may also want to prepare some PPA (Personal Package Archives) to install via Launchpad.
Something like what Darktable offers in their install page.

Mac os 10.12.1 (with all actualisations and brew updates) Smath mono (0.98) didn't work. Logo screen in desktop for long time after crashes.
Wine didn't work also, even installing dotnet 2.0 and gdiplus.
But PlayOnMac (4.2.10) installed and run SmathStudioDesktop.msi without any difficulty.


Marvellous project! LONG LIVE Andrey Ivashov

I've been using an old version of MathCad with WINE on the Mac for a few years. It worked but was not flawless.

I have started to use SMath Studio in the Cloud. This runs well enough in Safari.

You can create a stand-alone app (still needs internet access) in a few minutes using Fluid. It's not a native MacOS app but it gets pretty close.

Hi, I have question: Are you considering to port SMath Studio to macOS Catalina? Questions is related to the Mac Catalyst function for developers (https://developer.apple.com/mac-catalyst/) which allows to easily port iPadOS apps to macOS. And since SMath Studio is already on iOS store...

I have to admit I'm wishing more and more for a native Mac OS version of SMath now having had the Macbook Air with the M1 processor for a year and seeing Apple's roadmap moving away from Intel processors. I think Mono may have worked in the past but it will not with the ARM architecture and 32 bit SMath. My only workaround now is to pay to use Parallels with Window's ARM (bit of a resource hog for such a simple program). I can run the iPadOS version but that to me is not even an 1:1 comparison. I'm looking forward to the cloud version and maybe I can just move everyting there even though it is not extendable like the desktop version but I could make due. Would still love a standalone Mac version.
