Implicit Body, Plane, Scalar, Scalar, Scalar, Manufacturing Support Region Type Enum, Integer, Scalar
Find a number of orientations that attempt to minimize the volume of the support regions needed for the body. The implicit block version is more robust and likely to provide more optimal results, while the mesh block version will converge on results much faster but these may be less optimal.
The overhang angle used by the function to determine where support regions may need to exist with respect to the build plane. Overhang angles below this value will likely require support regions.
The number of candidate orientations the algorithm will consider before converging on an optimum. More candidates requires more iterations, resulting in a higher likelihood the global optimum is found but requiring longer time to run.
The minimum feature size used to discretize the body. This input will affect the resolution of the support volume calculation as the function evaluates candidate orientations.
