Curved Hull Panel as Base Panel for Assembly Orientation

Description

Through the assembly properties dialog, when the predefined orientation is set to "Specific Panel", it is now possible to select curved panel from the enumeration list of hull panels. The orientation of the selected curved hull panel is calculated and assigned as the orientation of the assembly.

The method to calculate the orientation of a curved hull panel utilizes a plane derived from the corner points provided by the seam limits, the same method as used by the Jigs calculations.
