Dodecahedron[ <Point A>, <Point B>, <Direction> ]
Creates a dodecahedron having segment [AB] as an edge.
The other vertices are univocally determined by the given direction, that needs to be:
  • a vector, a segment, a line, a ray orthogonal to AB, or
  • a polygon, a plane parallel to AB.
The created dodecahedron will have:
  • a face with edge AB in a plane orthogonal to the given vector/segment/line/ray, or
  • a face with edge AB in a plane parallel to the polygon/plane.
