How to customize your interface of ZW3D

ZW3D has a friendly interface and many strong functions, such as Hybrid Modeling, Mold and Die, Advanced assembly, Point Cloud, and 2-5 axis CAM. ZW3D was created to adapt to you. Different people use different functions more than others, and that is why we made a customizable interface. With ZW3D, you can customize the interface as you like, and set short cut keys to make designing even easier.
