Hey,

I have this function in my isosurface object:
function{(1+front_smoothness) - pow(front_smoothness, f_Sphere(7/4*x, 2*(y+0.9),
1/(8/2)*(z+8))) - pow(front_smoothness, f_Sphere(12/4*x, 4.55*(y-0.17),
10/12*(z+8.7))) - pow(front_smoothness, f_Sphere(12/4*x, 10*(y+0.5),
6/4*(z+7.8))) }
(a set of spheres that are smoothly unioned together)

where f_Sphere = function{ sqrt(pow(x,2) + pow(y,2) + pow(z,2)) - 2.8 }
(just a sphere with radius 2.8)

I was just wondering how I might convert this isosurface to a union of spheres.
I understand how to to apply the scaling and translations of the isosurface I
just don't seem to be able to perform the same transformation as the pow
function.

This is my not working attempt at the CSG...
     object{Sphere
          scale x*4/7 scale y*1/2 scale z*8/2
          translate x*-0 translate y*-0.9 translate z*-8
     }
     object{Sphere
          scale x*4/12 scale y*1/4.55 scale z*12/10
          translate x*-0 translate y*0.17 translate z*-8.7
     }
     object{Sphere
          scale x*4/12 scale y*1/10 scale z*4/6
          translate x*-0 translate y*-0.5 translate z*-7.8
     }

Thank you for help!
