Keypoint defining second corner of area.

Notes

The new area will overlay the old area. Often used when the area to be subdivided consists of a complex shape that was not generated in a single coordinate system. Keypoints and any corresponding lines must lie on the existing area. Missing lines are generated to lie on the given area. The active coordinate system is ignored.
