If the parent mesh is already computed, then you can define
\b Geometry by picking mesh elements computed on a sub-shape of interest
in the 3D Viewer, i.e. you don't have to extract this sub-shape
previously in Geometry module. To start element selection, press \a
Selection button to the right of \b Geometry label. If this button is
already down, then click it to release and then click it again. The
following pop-up menu to choose a way of geometry definition will
appear.

In this dialog, <b> Element Type </b> defines kind of element to pick in the
Viewer. Instead of picking an element in the Viewer, you can type its
ID in <b> Element ID</b> field. <b> Geometry name </b> allow you
define a name of the sub-shape with which it will be published in the Study.
