Hi there I was creating my module and try to set up my geometry and I got this error, "You need to provide input entities. Property: input comsol". Would you please tell me what that means and what to do about it? All the best

Look in the Model Builder, and then under Geometry. You have almost certainly failed to select an object, domain, edge, etc., or other "input entity" to go along with a command that you created but which only has any meaning if/when it is applied to some "input entity" -- and you failed to enter one. There are many such commands. Anyway, there is very likely a red x listed right next to the problematic command. That's to tell you where the problem is. So go there, and either specify an "input entity" for that command to act upon, or delete the command. The error message will then go away.
