Usage


usage: inscribe.py [-h] [-e {V,E,F}] [-n ELEMNUM1] [-E {V,E,F}] [-N ELEMNUM2]
                   [-v]
                   model1 model2

This program sets the radius of model2's face, edge, or vertex given by
element number, to that of model1's face, edge, or vertex given by its
element number.

Model 2 is resized and combined with model 1. The original model1 and model2
are not changed.
