  3. Use the Addon: The addon provides three custom vertex operation tools: Fetch Vertices, Subdivide, and Grid Fill. a. Fetch Vertices: This tool calculates the number of selected vertices and stores the value minus 2.
    1. Enter Edit Mode in the 3D Viewport.
    2. Select the vertices you want to fetch.
    3. Click on the "Fetch Vertices" button in the Vertex Ops tab.
