Netgen fails to launch under MacOS

Netgen fails to launch under MacOS was created by BKFC
I have a Mac running MacOS Mojave. I downloaded and installed Python 3.7 and Netgen according to the installation instructions. When I double click on Netgen in the Applications folder, I see the glimpse of a window, then nothing. Not sure what I am doing wrong.

open a terminal and start Netgen from there as
/Applications/Netgen.app/Contents/MacOS/netgen
Then you should see an error message.

Can it be that you installed Python 3.8, and not Python 3.7 ?
What do you get when you enter
which python3

I get
/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.8/bin/python3
So, yes, I installed 3.8, but I did this by clicking on the ngsolve.org link for installing Python, which explicitly says 3.7.
