Calculate the visible set of iso polygons and turn those on w.r.t given vector v.
Usually vector v is forward facing vector of the camera. if vector is null vector and reset is true, all facets are set to active. If reset if false, only facets which are currently active are retested. Returns false if no changes were needed to current state.
