Dodecahedron[ <Point A>, <Point B>, <Direction> ]

<Direction> has to be

  • a vector, a segment, a line, a ray orthogonal to ( AB);

or

  • a polygon in a plan parallel to ( AB).


Creates a dodecahedron of which a edge is segment [AB]. The other vertices are univocally determined by the given direction.

  • One face with edge [AB] in a plan orthogonal to vector/segment/line/ray given

or

  • One face with edge [AB] in a plan parallel to that of the polygon.
