Visual-Environment Highlight of Visual-Seat: Foam Blocks Positioning

When assembling the different components of the seat, it may happen that the foam at rest is intersecting the frame and/or the suspensions. In order to remove those intersections, a simulation-based technique had been implemented previously by applying surface pressure on foam. Upon customer request, a new method has been added where the frame (and suspensions) can be scaled down and moved initially to retrieve progressively their size and position during simulation, when the contact with foam is active.

3D Combine

As existing 2D Combine in Visual-Mesh, 3D Combine has been introduced to undone refinements.
