Collision detection in maya?
I heard about Rigid Body, but I believe this is about animation, I don't want to animate anything, I just want to use collision detection in my workflow.
Thanks!

Essentially, you can model a chair, duplicate it, place it above the original, turn on rigid body and gravity, let it fall into place (using collision detection) and then delete all the dynamics so you're left with plain old models, but placed correctly. Hope that helps.
