Best done as a Pure Figure

CR2 Generation

Create the phi file with the appropriate hierarchy
Eg Elements - sofaBody sofaLeg1 sofaLeg2 sofaLeg3 sofaLeg4 sofaBack sofaArmRest1 sofaArmRest2 cushion1 cushion2
Generate the RSR and CR2 file

CR2 Editing

Adjust the JPs - especially the centers

Turn off bends for discrete pieces Eg cushions

The frame can be tweaked with tapers, scales, translates, rotates and so on ... even adjusting the scale extents or scale types - eg "propagatingScale" instead of "scale" in the CR2

Add the geometry switches in the CR2 or use "replace actor with prop" from the main menu for the cushions

PS You may fix JPs later by deleting jointing for cushions in the CR2

Hope this helps :)
