## Examples

```py
model2d.add_rectangle([0,0],[2,2])                                      #Add rectangle
v = model2d.get_shapes(types=['vertex'])                                #Get all vertex
f = model2d.get_shapes_by_vertices(shapeType='face',vertices=v)         #Get face bounded by vertices
f.values                                                                #Output values
[face:id=8]
model3d.add_prism(points=[[-1,-1,0],[-3,-3,0],[-3,0,0]],height=3)       #Add prism
v  = model3d.select([-1,-1,0],[-2,-2,3],types=['vertex'],option='blue') #Select two vertex
e = model3d.get_shapes_by_vertices(shapeType='edge',vertices=v)         #Get edge bounded by vertex
e.values                                                                #Output values
