Well those systems and pretty much all of the mechanical CAD industry is built upon D-Cubed's DCM, so I'd expect the behaviour to be the same.

If I was creating a new 3D CAD system from scratch now I'd probably license Parasolid eventually, but I'd pass on DCM.

I don't want to dump on D-Cubed and John Owen though. I have huge respect for him and the company he created. This is technical criticism with the benefit of hindsight.
