This site answers frequently asked questions on CoCreate OneSpace Modeling, a 3D CAD application which was previously known as OneSpace Designer Modeling (OSDM), and before that as SolidDesigner. The focus of this web site is on customization and programming. Thanks to TWiki, everyone can contribute by editing pages on the site. If you are not familiar with the TWiki collaboration platform, please visit WelcomeGuest first.

Hier werden häufig gestellte Fragen zu CoCreate OneSpace Modeling beantwortet. (OneSpace Modeling hieß vormals OneSpace Designer Modeling und davor SolidDesigner.) Der besondere Schwerpunkt dieser Website liegt auf eigenen Anpassungen und der Programmierung von OneSpace Modeling. Dank TWiki kann jeder beitragen, indem er Einträge hinzufügt oder erweitert. Wer TWiki noch nicht kennt, dem sei WelcomeGuest als Einführung empfohlen.
