.. cpp:class:: DynamicMeshEditor

    This class provides an interface for dynamic editing of meshes,
    that is, when the number of vertices and cells are not known
    a priori. If the number of vertices and cells are known a priori,
    it is more efficient to use the default editor MeshEditor.
