For volume modeling, OpenPlant Modeler does not use Smart solids, but rather a modified version, which works faster and produces smaller graph files.

Consequently, you cannot combine OpenPlant Modeler objects and 3D solids (e.g. subtract their volumes). In case you do combine objects, there will be no errors, but nothing will happen! In order to give you the same performance, all solids have been redefined.

As these solids are real objects, they can be processed with the help of OpenPlant Modeler commands (e.g., the Drill tool). These solids can be detailed as normal component part.
