-\anchor adaptive_1d_anchor
-<h2>Adaptive hypothesis</h2>
-
-<b>Adaptive</b> hypothesis allows to split edges into segments with a
-length that depends on the curvature of edges and faces and is limited by <b>Min. Size</b>
-and <b>Max Size</b>. The length of a segment also depends on the lengths
-of adjacent segments (that can't differ more than twice) and on the 
-distance to close geometrical entities (edges and faces) to avoid
-creation of narrow 2D elements.
-
-\image html adaptive1d.png
-
-- <b>Min size</b> parameter limits the minimal segment size. 
-- <b>Max size</b> parameter defines the length of segments on straight edges. 
-- \b Deflection parameter gives maximal distance of a segment from a curved edge.

-<b>See Also</b> a \ref tui_1d_adaptive "sample TUI Script" that uses Adaptive hypothesis.
-
-<br>
-\anchor arithmetic_1d_anchor
-<h2>Arithmetic Progression hypothesis</h2>
-
-<b>Arithmetic Progression</b> hypothesis allows to split edges into segments with a
-length that changes in arithmetic progression (Lk = Lk-1 + d)
-beginning from a given starting length and up to a given end length.
-
-The splitting direction is defined by the orientation of the
-underlying geometrical edge.
-<b>Reverse Edges</b> list box allows specifying the edges, for which
-the splitting should be made in the direction opposite to their
-orientation. This list box is usable only if a geometry object is
-selected for meshing. In this case it is possible to select edges to
-be reversed either directly picking them in the 3D viewer or by
-selecting the edges or groups of edges in the Object Browser. Use \b
-Add button to add the selected edges to the list.
-
-\ref reversed_edges_helper_anchor "Helper" group assists you in

-<h2>Geometric Progression hypothesis</h2>
-
-<b>Geometric Progression</b> hypothesis allows splitting edges into
-segments with a length that changes in geometric progression (Lk =
-Lk-1 * d) starting from a given <b>Start Length</b> and with a given
-<b>Common Ratio</b>.
-
-The splitting direction is defined by the orientation of the
-underlying geometrical edge.
-<b>Reverse Edges</b> list box allows specifying the edges, for which
-the splitting should be made in the direction opposite to their
-orientation. This list box is usable only if a geometry object is
-selected for meshing. In this case it is possible to select edges to
-be reversed either directly picking them in the 3D viewer or by
-selecting the edges or groups of edges in the Object Browser. Use \b

-\anchor deflection_1d_anchor
-<h2>Deflection hypothesis</h2>
-
-<b>Deflection</b> hypothesis can be applied for meshing curvilinear edges
-composing your geometrical object. It defines only one parameter: the
-value of deflection (or chord error).
-
-A geometrical edge is divided into segments of length depending on
-edge curvature. The more curved the edge, the shorter the
-segment. Nodes on the edge are placed so that the maximum distance
-between the edge and a segment approximating a part of edge between
-two nodes should not exceed the value of deflection.

-
-<br>
-\anchor average_length_anchor
-<h2>Local Length hypothesis</h2>
-
-<b>Local Length</b> hypothesis can be applied for meshing of edges
-composing your geometrical object. Definition of this hypothesis
-consists of setting the \b length of segments, which will approximate these
-edges, and the \b precision of rounding.
-
-The \b precision parameter is used to round a <em>number of segments</em>,
-calculated by dividing the <em>edge length</em> by the specified \b length of
-segment, to the higher integer if the \a remainder exceeds the \b precision
-and to the lower integer otherwise. <br>
-Use value 0.5 to provide rounding to the nearest integer, 1.0 for the lower integer, 0.0 for the higher integer. Default value is 1e-07.
-
-For example: if <em>edge length</em> is 10.0 and the segment \b length
-is 3.0 then their division gives 10./3. = 3.33(3) and the \a remainder is 0.33(3).
-If \b precision is less than 0.33(3) then the edge is divided into 3 segments.
-If \b precision is more than 0.33(3) then the edge is divided into 4 segments.

-
-<br>\anchor max_length_anchor
-<h2>Max Size</h2>
-<b>Max Size</b> hypothesis allows splitting geometrical edges into
-segments not longer than the given length. Definition of this hypothesis
-consists of setting the maximal allowed \b length of segments.
-<b>Use preestimated length</b> check box lets you use \b length
-automatically calculated basing on size of your geometrical object,
-namely as diagonal of bounding box divided by ten. The divider can be
-changed via \ref diagonal_size_ratio_pref "Ratio Bounding Box Diagonal / Max Size"
-preference parameter.
-<b>Use preestimated length</b> check box is enabled only if the
-geometrical object has been selected before hypothesis definition.
-
-\image html a-maxsize1d.png
-
-<br>
-\anchor number_of_segments_anchor
-<h2>Number of Segments hypothesis</h2>
-
-<b>Number of Segments</b> hypothesis can be applied for approximating
-edges by a definite number of mesh segments with length depending on
-the selected type of distribution of nodes. The default number of
-segments can be set via 
-\ref nb_segments_pref "Automatic Parameters / Default Number of Segments"
-preference parameter.
-
-The direction of the splitting is defined by the orientation of the
-underlying geometrical edge. <b>Reverse Edges</b> list box allows to

+Adaptive hypothesis
+###################
+
+**Adaptive** hypothesis allows to split edges into segments with a length that depends on the curvature of edges and faces and is limited by **Min. Size** and **Max Size**. The length of a segment also depends on the lengths of adjacent segments (that can't differ more than twice) and on the  distance to close geometrical entities (edges and faces) to avoid creation of narrow 2D elements.
+
+	.. image:: ../images/adaptive1d.png
+		:align: center
+
+* **Min size** parameter limits the minimal segment size. 
+* **Max size** parameter defines the length of segments on straight edges. 
+* **Deflection** parameter gives maximal distance of a segment from a curved edge.

+
+Arithmetic Progression hypothesis
+#################################
+
+**Arithmetic Progression** hypothesis allows to split edges into segments with a length that changes in arithmetic progression (Lk = Lk-1 + d) beginning from a given starting length and up to a given end length.
+
+The splitting direction is defined by the orientation of the underlying geometrical edge. **Reverse Edges** list box allows specifying the edges, for which the splitting should be made in the direction opposite to their orientation.

+
+The splitting direction is defined by the orientation of the underlying geometrical edge.

+

+
+Deflection hypothesis
+#####################
+
+**Deflection** hypothesis can be applied for meshing curvilinear edges composing your geometrical object. It defines only one parameter: the value of deflection (or chord error).
+
+A geometrical edge is divided into segments of length depending on edge curvature. The more curved the edge, the shorter the segment. Nodes on the edge are placed so that the maximum distance between the edge and a segment approximating a part of edge between two nodes should not exceed the value of deflection.

+
+.. _average_length_anchor:
+
+Local Length hypothesis
+#######################
+
+**Local Length** hypothesis can be applied for meshing of edges composing your geometrical object. Definition of this hypothesis consists of setting the **length** of segments, which will approximate these edges, and the **precision** of rounding.
+
+The **precision** parameter is used to round a *number of segments*, calculated by dividing the *edge length* by the specified **length** of segment, to the higher integer if the *remainder* exceeds the **precision** and to the lower integer otherwise. 
+Use value 0.5 to provide rounding to the nearest integer, 1.0 for the lower integer, 0.0 for the higher integer. Default value is 1e-07.
+
+For example: if *edge length* is 10.0 and the segment **length**
+is 3.0 then their division gives 10./3. = 3.33(3) and the *remainder* is 0.33(3).
+If **precision** is less than 0.33(3) then the edge is divided into 3 segments.
+If **precision** is more than 0.33(3) then the edge is divided into 4 segments.

+########
+
+**Max Size** hypothesis allows splitting geometrical edges into segments not longer than the given length. Definition of this hypothesis consists of setting the maximal allowed **length** of segments.
+**Use preestimated length** check box lets you use **length** automatically calculated basing on size of your geometrical object, namely as diagonal of bounding box divided by ten. The divider can be changed via :ref:`diagonal_size_ratio_pref` preference parameter.

+Number of Segments hypothesis
+#############################
+
+**Number of Segments** hypothesis can be applied for approximating edges by a definite number of mesh segments with length depending on the selected type of distribution of nodes. The default number of segments can be set via :ref:`nb_segments_pref` preference parameter.
+
+The direction of the splitting is defined by the orientation of the underlying geometrical edge. **Reverse Edges** list box allows to specify the edges for which the splitting should be made in the direction opposing to their orientation. This list box is enabled only if the geometry object is selected for the meshing.

+
+Length of segments changes in geometric progression with the common ratio (A) depending on the **Scale Factor** (S) and **Number of Segments** (N) as follows: <code> A = S**(1/(N-1))</code>. For an edge of length L, length of the first segment is

-<h2>Quadrangle parameters</h2>
-
-\image html hypo_quad_params_dialog.png "Quadrangle parameters: Transition"
-
-<b>Quadrangle parameters</b> is a hypothesis for \ref quad_ijk_algo_page.
-
-<b>Transition</b> tab is used to define the algorithm of transition
-between opposite sides of the face with a different number of
-segments on them. The following types of transition
-algorithms are available:
-
-- <b>Standard</b> is the default case, when both triangles and quadrangles
-  are possible in the transition area along the finer meshed sides.
-- <b>Triangle preference</b> forces building only triangles in the
-  transition area along the finer meshed sides.
-  \note This type corresponds to <b>Triangle Preference</b> additional hypothesis,
-  which is obsolete now.
-- <b>Quadrangle preference</b> forces building only quadrangles in the
-  transition area along the finer meshed sides. This hypothesis has a
-  restriction: the total quantity of segments on all
-  four face sides must be even (divisible by 2).
-  \note This type corresponds to <b>Quadrangle Preference</b> additional hypothesis,
-  which is obsolete now.
-- <b>Quadrangle preference (reversed)</b> works in the same way and
-  with the same restriction as <b>Quadrangle preference</b>, but
-  the transition area is located along the coarser meshed sides.
-- <b>Reduced</b> type forces building only quadrangles and the transition
-  between the sides is made gradually, layer by layer. This type has
-  a limitation on the number of segments: one pair of opposite sides must have
-  the same number of segments, the other pair must have an even total
-  number of segments. In addition, the number of rows
-  between sides with different discretization
-  should be enough for the transition. Following the fastest transition
-  pattern, three segments become one (see the image below), hence
-  the least number of face rows needed to reduce from Nmax segments
-  to Nmin segments is log<sub>3</sub>( Nmax / Nmin ). The number of
-  face rows is equal to the number of segments on each of equally
-  discretized sides.
-
-\image html reduce_three_to_one.png "The fastest transition pattern: 3 to 1"
-
-<b>Base vertex</b> tab allows using Quadrangle: Mapping
-algorithm for meshing of trilateral faces. In this case it is
-necessary to select the vertex, which will be used as the forth
-degenerated side of quadrangle.
-

-
-\image html hypo_quad_params_1.png "A face built from 3 edges"
-
-\image html hypo_quad_params_res.png "The resulting mesh"
-
-This parameter can be also used to mesh a segment of a circular face.
-Please, consider that there is a limitation on the selection of the
-vertex for the faces built with the angle > 180 degrees (see the picture).
-
-\image html hypo_quad_params_2.png "3/4 of a circular face"
-
-In this case, selection of a wrong vertex for the <b>Base vertex</b>
-parameter will generate a wrong mesh. The picture below

-
-\image html hypo_quad_params_dialog_enf.png "Quadrangle parameters: Enforced nodes"
-
-<b>Enforced nodes</b> tab allows defining points, where the
-algorithm should create nodes. There are two ways to define positions
-of the enforced nodes.
-<ul>
-  <li>\b Vertices group allows to set up shapes whose vertices will
-    define positions of the enforced nodes. Only vertices successfully
-    projected to the meshed face and located close enough to the
-    meshed face will be used to create the enforced nodes.</li>
-  <li> \b Points group allows to explicitly define coordinates of
-    points used to create the enforced nodes. Only points successfully
-    projected to the meshed face and located close enough to the
-    meshed face will be used to create the enforced nodes.</li>
-</ul>
-\note <b>Enforced nodes</b> cannot be created at \b Reduced transition type.
-
-Let us see how the algorithm works:
-<ul>
-  <li> Initially positions of nodes are computed without taking into
-  account the enforced vertex (yellow point).</li> 
-\image html hypo_quad_params_enfnodes_algo1.png "Initial mesh"
-
-  <li> Then the node closest to the enforced vertex is
-    detected. Extreme nodes of the row and column of the detected node

+**Max Element Area** hypothesis is applied for meshing of faces composing your geometrical object. Definition of this hypothesis consists of setting the **maximum area** of mesh faces, which will compose the mesh of these faces.

+	"Quadrangle parameters: Transition"
+
+**Quadrangle parameters** is a hypothesis for :ref:`quad_ijk_algo_page`.
+
+**Transition** tab is used to define the algorithm of transition between opposite sides of the face with a different number of segments on them. The following types of transition algorithms are available:
+
+* **Standard** is the default case, when both triangles and quadrangles are possible in the transition area along the finer meshed sides.
+* **Triangle preference** forces building only triangles in the transition area along the finer meshed sides.
+
+	.. note::
+		This type corresponds to **Triangle Preference** additional hypothesis, which is obsolete now.
+
+* **Quadrangle preference** forces building only quadrangles in the transition area along the finer meshed sides. This hypothesis has a restriction: the total quantity of segments on all four face sides must be even (divisible by 2).
+
+	.. note::
+		This type corresponds to **Quadrangle Preference** additional hypothesis, which is obsolete now.
+
+* **Quadrangle preference (reversed)** works in the same way and with the same restriction as **Quadrangle preference**, but the transition area is located along the coarser meshed sides.
+* **Reduced** type forces building only quadrangles and the transition between the sides is made gradually, layer by layer. This type has a limitation on the number of segments: one pair of opposite sides must have the same number of segments, the other pair must have an even total number of segments. In addition, the number of rows between sides with different discretization should be enough for the transition. Following the fastest transition pattern, three segments become one (see the image below), hence the least number of face rows needed to reduce from Nmax segments to Nmin segments is log<sub>3</sub>( Nmax / Nmin ). The number of face rows is equal to the number of segments on each of equally discretized sides.
+
+.. image:: ../images/ reduce_three_to_one.png 
+	:align: center
+
+.. centered::
+	"The fastest transition pattern: 3 to 1"
+
+**Base vertex** tab allows using Quadrangle: Mapping algorithm for meshing of trilateral faces. In this case it is necessary to select the vertex, which will be used as the forth degenerated side of quadrangle.
+
+.. image:: ../images/ hypo_quad_params_dialog_vert.png 
+	:align: center

+.. centered::
+	"Quadrangle parameters: Base Vertex"

+
+.. centered::
+	"A face built from 3 edges"
+
+.. image:: ../images/ hypo_quad_params_res.png 
+	:align: center
+
+.. centered::
+	"The resulting mesh"
+
+This parameter can be also used to mesh a segment of a circular face. Please, consider that there is a limitation on the selection of the vertex for the faces built with the angle > 180 degrees (see the picture).
+
+.. image:: ../images/ hypo_quad_params_2.png 
+	:align: center
+
+.. centered:: 
+	"3/4 of a circular face"
+
+In this case, selection of a wrong vertex for the **Base vertex** parameter will generate a wrong mesh. The picture below shows the good (left) and the bad (right) results of meshing.
+
+.. image:: ../images/ hypo_quad_params_res_2.png 
+	:align: center
+
+.. centered::
+	"The resulting meshes"
+
+.. image:: ../images/ hypo_quad_params_dialog_enf.png 
+	:align: center
+
+.. centered::
+	"Quadrangle parameters: Enforced nodes"
+
+**Enforced nodes** tab allows defining points, where the algorithm should create nodes. There are two ways to define positions of the enforced nodes.
+
+	* **Vertices** group allows to set up shapes whose vertices will  define positions of the enforced nodes. Only vertices successfully projected to the meshed face and located close enough to the meshed face will be used to create the enforced nodes.
+	* **Points** group allows to explicitly define coordinates of points used to create the enforced nodes. Only points successfully projected to the meshed face and located close enough to the meshed face will be used to create the enforced nodes.
+
+..  note::
+	**Enforced nodes** cannot be created at **Reduced** transition type.
+
+Let us see how the algorithm works:
+	* Initially positions of nodes are computed without taking into account the enforced vertex (yellow point). 
+
+.. image:: ../images/ hypo_quad_params_enfnodes_algo1.png
+	:align: center
+
+.. centered::
+	"Initial mesh"
+
+* Then the node closest to the enforced vertex is detected. Extreme nodes of the row and column of the detected node are used to create virtual edges (yellow lines) ending at the enforced vertex. 
+
+	.. image:: ../images/ hypo_quad_params_enfnodes_algo2.png
+		:align: center
+	.. centered::
+		 "Creation of virtual edges"
+	
+* Consequently, the meshed face is divided by the virtual edges into four quadrilateral sub-domains each of which is meshed as usually: the nodes of the row and column of the detected node are moved to the virtual edges and the quadrilateral elements are constructed. 
+	
+	.. image:: ../images/ hypo_quad_params_enfnodes_algo3.png 
+		:align: center
+	
+	.. centered::
+		"Final mesh"	
+
+
+If there are several enforced vertices, the algorithm is applied recursively to the formed sub-domains.

-\page adding_nodes_and_elements_page Adding nodes and elements
-
-\n In MESH you can add to your mesh different elements such as:
-
-<ul>
-<li>\ref adding_nodes_anchor "Nodes"</li>
-<li>\ref adding_0delems_anchor "0D Elements"</li>
-<li>\ref adding_0delems_on_all_nodes_anchor "0D elements on Element Nodes"</li>
-<li>\ref adding_balls_anchor "Ball Elements"</li>

-<li>\ref adding_polygons_anchor "Polygons"</li>
-<li>\ref adding_tetrahedrons_anchor "Tetrahedrons"</li>
-<li>\ref adding_hexahedrons_anchor "Hexahedrons"</li>
-<li>\ref adding_octahedrons_anchor "Hexagonal prism"</li>
-<li>\ref adding_polyhedrons_anchor "Polyhedrons"</li>
-</ul>
-
-The convention of nodal connectivity of elements used in SALOME is
-the MED library convention. You can consult the description of
-nodal connectivity of elements in the documentation on MED library or 
-\ref connectivity_page "here".
-
-<em>To add a node or an element to your mesh:</em>
-<ol>
-  <li>Select your mesh in the Object Browser or in the 3D viewer.</li>
-
-  <li>From the \b Modification menu choose the \b Add item, the
-    following associated sub-menu will appear:</li>
-
-  \image html image152.png
-
-From this sub-menu select the type of element which you would like to add to your mesh.
-
-\note All dialogs for new node or element adding to the mesh provide
-the possibility to automatically add
-a node or element to the specified group or to create it anew using
-<b>Add to group</b> box, that allows choosing an existing group for
-the created node or element or giving the name to a new group. By
-default, the <b>Add to group</b> check box is switched off. If the user
-switches this check box on, the combo box listing all currently
-existing groups of the corresponding type becomes available. By
-default, no group is selected. In this case, when the user presses
-<b>Apply</b> or <b>Apply & Close</b> button, the warning message box
-informs the user about the necessity to input new group name. The
-combo box lists groups of all the 
-\ref grouping_elements_page "three types": both 
-\ref standalone_group "standalone groups",
-\ref group_on_filter "groups on filter", and 
-\ref group_on_geom "groups on geometry". If the user chooses a
-group on geometry or on filter, he is warned and proposed to
-convert this group to standalone.
-If the user rejects conversion operation, it is cancelled and
-a new node/element is not created!

+Adding Quadratic Elements
+*************************  
+
+MESH module allows you to work with **Quadratic Elements**.
+
+Quadratic elements are defined by the same corner nodes as the corresponding linear ones, but in addition they have *midside* nodes located between the corner nodes on element sides.
+
+If a quadratic 2D element has an additional node at the element center, it is a bi-quadratic element (both TRIA7 and QUAD9 elements are supported). If a quadratic hexahedral element has 7 additional nodes: at the element center and at the center of each side, it is a tri-quadratic element (or HEXA27).
+
+The convention of nodal connectivity of elements used in SALOME is the MED library convention. You can consult the description of nodal connectivity of elements in the documentation on MED library or :ref:`connectivity_page`.
+
+There are several ways to create quadratic elements in your mesh:

+* manually (this way is described below);
+* use :ref:`quadratic_mesh_anchor` hypothesis to generate a quadratic mesh on your geometry;
+* convert an existing linear mesh to a quadratic one (see :ref:`convert_to_from_quadratic_mesh_page`).
+
+**To add a quadratic element to your mesh:**
+
+#. Select your mesh in the Object Browser or in the 3D viewer.
+
+#. From the **Modification** menu choose the **Add** item and select one of the following:

-The meshing algorithm is as follows.
-<ol>
-<li> Lines of a Cartesian structured grid defined by
-\ref cartesian_hyp_anchor "Body Fitting Parameters" hypothesis are
-intersected with the geometry boundary, thus nodes lying on the
-boundary are found. This step also allows finding out for each node of
-the Cartesian grid if it is inside or outside the geometry. </li>
-<li> For each cell of the grid, check how many of its nodes are outside
-of the geometry boundary. Depending on a result of this check
-<ul>
-<li> skip a cell, if all its nodes are outside </li>
-<li> skip a cell, if it is too small according to <b> Size
-    Threshold </b> parameter</li>
-<li> add a hexahedron in the mesh, if all nodes are inside </li>
-<li> add a polyhedron or another cell type in the mesh, if some

-</ul>
-</li>
-</ol>

-        \b Note that node coordinates are measured along directions of
-        axes that can differ from the directions of the Global Coordinate
-        System.</li>
-      <li> You can define the \b Spacing of a grid as an algebraic formula

+*********************************
+Body Fitting 3D meshing algorithm
+*********************************
+
+Body Fitting algorithm generates hexahedrons of a Cartesian grid in
+the internal part of geometry and polyhedrons and other types of
+elements at the intersection of Cartesian cells with the geometrical
+boundary.
+
+.. image:: ../images/cartesian3D_sphere.png 
+	:align: center
+
+.. centered::
+	"A sphere meshed by Body Fitting algorithm"
+
+The meshing algorithm is as follows.
+
+#. Lines of a Cartesian structured grid defined by :ref:`cartesian_hyp_anchor` hypothesis are intersected with the geometry boundary, thus nodes lying on the boundary are found. This step also allows finding out for each node of the Cartesian grid if it is inside or outside the geometry. 
+#. For each cell of the grid, check how many of its nodes are outside of the geometry boundary. Depending on a result of this check
+#. skip a cell, if all its nodes are outside 
+#. skip a cell, if it is too small according to **Size Threshold** parameter
+#. add a hexahedron in the mesh, if all nodes are inside 
+#. add a polyhedron or another cell type in the mesh, if some nodes are inside and some outside.  
+
+To apply this algorithm when you define your mesh, select **Body Fitting** in the list of 3D algorithms and add **Body Fitting  Parameters** hypothesis. The following dialog will appear:
+
+.. _cartesian_hyp_anchor:
+
+Body Fitting Parameters hypothesis
+##################################
+
+.. image:: ../images/cartesian3D_hyp.png 
+	:align: center
+
+.. centered::
+	"Body Fitting Parameters hypothesis dialog"
+
+This dialog allows to define
+
+* **Name** of the algorithm. 
+* Minimal size of a cell truncated by the geometry boundary. If the size of a truncated grid cell is **Threshold** times less than a initial cell size, then a mesh element is not created. 
+* **Implement Edges** check-box activates incorporation of geometrical edges in the mesh.
+  
+	.. image:: ../images/cartesian_implement_edge.png 
+		:align: center
+
+	.. centered::
+		"Implement Edges switched off to the left and on to the right"
+
+* **Definition mode** allows choosing how Cartesian structured grid is defined. Location of nodes along each grid axis is defined individually:
+    
+	* You can specify the **Coordinates** of grid nodes. **Insert** button inserts a node at **Step** distance (negative or positive) from the selected node. **Delete** button removes the selected node. Double click on a coordinate in the list enables its edition. 
+		.. note:: 
+			that node coordinates are measured along directions of axes that can differ from the directions of the Global Coordinate System.
+	* You can define the **Spacing** of a grid as an algebraic formula **f(t)** where *t* is a position along a grid axis normalized at [0.0,1.0]. **f(t)** must be non-negative at 0. <= *t* <= 1. The whole extent of geometry can be divided into ranges with their own spacing formulas to apply; a t varies between 0.0 and 1.0 within each **Range**. **Insert** button divides a selected range into two. **Delete** button adds the selected sub-range to the previous one. Double click on a range in the list enables edition of its right boundary. Double click on a function in the list enables its edition.
+  
+* **Fixed Point** group allows defining an exact location of a grid node in the direction defined by spacing. The following cases are possible:
+   
+	* If all three directions are defined by spacing, there will be a mesh node at the **Fixed Point**. 
+	* If two directions are defined by spacing, there will be at least a link between mesh nodes passing through the **Fixed Point**. 
+	* If only one direction is defined by spacing, there will be at least an element facet passing through the **Fixed Point**.
+	* If no directions are defined by spacing, **Fixed Point** is disabled.
+	
+* **Directions of Axes** group allows setting the directions of grid axes.
+   
+	* If **Orthogonal Axes** check-box is activated the axes remain orthogonal during their modification. 
+	* Selection buttons enable snapping corresponding axes to direction of a geometrical edge selected in the Object Browser. Edge direction is defined by coordinates of its end points.
+	* **Optimal Axes** button runs an algorithm that tries to set the axes to maximize the number of generated hexahedra.
+	* **Reset** button returns the axes in a default position parallel to the axes of the Global Coordinate System.

-\page constructing_meshes_page Constructing meshes
-
-To create a mesh on geometry, it is necessary to create a mesh object by choosing
-- a geometrical shape produced in the Geometry module (<em>main shape</em>);
-- <em>meshing parameters</em>, including 
-  - \ref basic_meshing_algos_page "meshing algorithms" and
-  - \ref about_hypo_page "hypotheses" specifying constraints to be
-    taken into account by the chosen meshing algorithms.
-
-Then you can launch mesh generation by invoking \ref compute_anchor "Compute" command.
-The generated mesh will be automatically shown in the Viewer. You can
-switch off automatic visualization or limit mesh size until which it is
-automatically shown in \ref mesh_preferences_page (<em>Automatic update</em> entry).
-
-\note Sometimes \a hypotheses term is used to refer to both algorithms
-and hypotheses.
-
-Mesh generation on the geometry is performed in the bottom-up
-flow: nodes on vertices are created first, then edges are divided into
-segments using nodes on vertices; the nodes of segments are then
-used to mesh faces; then the nodes of faces are used to mesh
-solids. This automatically assures the conformity of the mesh.
-
-It is required to choose a meshing algorithm for every dimension of
-sub-shapes up to the highest dimension to be generated. Note
-that some algorithms generate elements of several dimensions, and
-others of only one. It is not necessary to define meshing
-parameters for all dimensions at once; you can start from 1D
-meshing parameters only, compute the 1D mesh, then define 2D meshing
-parameters and compute the 2D mesh (note that 1D mesh will not be
-re-computed).
-
-An algorithm of a certain dimension chosen at mesh creation is applied
-to discretize every sub-shape of this dimension. It is possible to
-specify a different algorithm or hypothesis to be applied to one or
-a group of sub-shapes by creating a \ref constructing_submeshes_page
-"sub-mesh". You can specify no algorithms at all at mesh object
-creation and specify the meshing parameters on sub-meshes only; then
-only the sub-shapes, for which an algorithm and a hypothesis (if any)
-have been defined will be discretized.
-
-\n Construction of a mesh on a geometry includes at least two 
-(\ref create_mesh_anchor "mesh creation" and
-\ref compute_anchor "computing") of the following steps:
-<ul>
-  <li> \ref create_mesh_anchor "Creation of a mesh object", where you
-  can specify meshing parameters to apply to all sub-shapes of the
-  main shape.</li>
-  <li> \ref constructing_submeshes_page "Creation of sub-meshes",
-  (optional) where you can specify meshing parameters to apply to the
-  selected sub-shapes.</li>
-  <li> \ref evaluate_anchor "Evaluating mesh size" (optional) can be
-  used to know an approximate number of elements before their actual generation.</li>
-  <li> \ref preview_anchor "Previewing the mesh" (optional) can be
-  used to generate mesh of only lower dimension(s) in order to
-  visually estimate it before full mesh generation, which can be much
-  longer.</li>
-  <li> \ref submesh_order_anchor "Changing sub-mesh priority"
-  (optional) can be useful if there are concurrent sub-meshes
-  defined.</li>
-  <li> \ref compute_anchor "Computing the mesh" uses defined meshing
-  parameters to generate mesh elements.</li>
-  <li> \ref edit_anchor "Editing the mesh" (optional) can be used to
-  \ref modifying_meshes_page "modify" the mesh of a lower dimension before
-  \ref compute_anchor "computing" elements of an upper dimension.</li>
-</ul>
-
-\anchor create_mesh_anchor
-<h2>Creation of a mesh object</h2>
-<em>To construct a mesh:</em>
-<ol>
-  <li>Select a geometrical object for meshing.</li>
-  <li>In the \b Mesh menu select <b>Create Mesh</b> or click <em>"Create
-      Mesh"</em> button in the toolbar. 
-
-    <center>
-    \image html image32.png
-    <em>"Create Mesh" button</em>
-    </center>
-
-    The following dialog box will appear: 
-
-    \image html createmesh-inv.png
-    <br>
-  </li>
-  <li> To filter off irrelevant meshing algorithms, you can
-    select <b>Mesh Type</b> in the corresponding list from <b>Any,
-      Hexahedral, Tetrahedral, Triangular </b> and \b Quadrilateral (there
-    can be less items for the geometry of lower dimensions).
-
-    Selection of a mesh type hides all meshing algorithms that cannot
-    generate elements of this type.</li>
-
-  <li>Apply \subpage basic_meshing_algos_page "meshing algorithms" and
-    \subpage about_hypo_page "hypotheses" which will be used to compute
-    this mesh.
-
-    "Create mesh" dialog box contains several tab pages titled \b 3D,
-    \b 2D, \b 1D and \b 0D. The title of each page reflects the
-    dimension of the sub-shapes the algorithms listed on
-    this page affect and the maximal dimension of elements the algorithms
-    generate. For example, \b 3D page lists the algorithms that affect
-    3D sub-shapes (solids) and generate 3D mesh elements
-    (tetrahedra, hexahedra etc.)
-
-    As soon as you have selected an algorithm, you can create a
-    hypothesis (or select an already created one). A set of accessible
-    hypotheses includes only the hypotheses that can be used by the
-    selected algorithm.
-
-    \note
-    - Some page(s) can be disabled if the geometrical
-    object does not include shapes (sub-shapes) of the corresponding
-    dimension(s). For example, if the input object is a geometrical face,
-    \b 3D page is disabled.
-    - Some algorithms affect the geometry of several dimensions,
-    i.e. 1D+2D or 1D+2D+3D. If such an algorithm is selected, the
-    dialog pages related to the corresponding lower dimensions are
-    disabled.
-    - \b 0D page refers to 0D geometry (vertices) rather than
-    to 0D elements. Mesh module does not provide algorithms that
-    produce 0D elements. Currently \b 0D page provides only one
-    algorithm "Segments around vertex" that allows specifying the required
-    size of mesh edges about the selected vertex (or vertices).
-
-    For example, you need to mesh a 3D object.
-
-    First, you can change a default name of your mesh in the \b Name
-    box. Then check that the selected geometrical object indicated in
-    \b Geometry field, is what you wish to mesh; if not, select
-    the correct object in the Object Browser. Click "Select" button
-    near \b Geometry field if the name of the object has not yet
-    appeared in \b Geometry field.
-    <center>
-    \image html image120.png
-    <em>"Select" button</em>
-    </center>
-
-    Now you can define 3D Algorithm and 3D Hypotheses, which will be
-    applied to discretize the solids of your geometrical object using
-    3D elements. Click the <em>"Add Hypothesis"</em> button to create
-    and add a hypothesis.
-    <center>
-    \image html image121.png
-    <em>"Add Hypothesis" button</em>
-    </center>
-    Click the <em>"Plus"</em> button to enable adding more additional hypotheses.
-
-    Click the <em>"Edit Hypothesis"</em> button to change the values for the
-    current hypothesis.
-    <center>
-    \image html image122.png
-    <em>"Edit Hypothesis" button</em>
-    </center>
-
-    Most 2D and 3D algorithms can work without hypotheses using
-    default meshing parameters. Some algorithms do not require any
-    hypotheses. After selection of an algorithm "Hypothesis" field of
-    the dialog can contain:
-    <ul>
-      <li> <em>\<Default\></em> if the algorithm can work using default
-      parameters.</li>
-      <li> <em>\<None\></em> if the algorithm requires a hypothesis defining
-      its parameters.</li>
-      <li> If the algorithm does not use hypotheses, this field is grayed.</li>
-    </ul>
-    After selection of an algorithm <b>Add. Hypothesis</b> field can contain:
-    <ul>
-      <li> <em>\<None\></em> if the algorithm can be tuned
-      using an additional hypothesis.</li>
-      <li> If the algorithm does not use additional hypotheses, this field is grayed.</li>
-    </ul>
-
-    Proceed in the same way with 2D and 1D Algorithms and Hypotheses that
-    will be used to mesh faces and edges of your geometry. (Note
-    that any object has edges, even if their existence is not
-    apparent, for example, a sphere has 4 edges). Note that the
-    choice of hypotheses and lower dimension algorithms depends on
-    the higher dimension algorithm.
-
-    If you wish you can select other algorithms and/or hypotheses
-    for meshing some sub-shapes of your CAD model by \ref constructing_submeshes_page.
-
-    Some algorithms generate mesh of several dimensions, while others
-    produce mesh of only one dimension. In the latter case there must
-    be one Algorithm and zero or several
-    Hypotheses for each dimension of your object, otherwise you will
-    not get any mesh at all. Of course, if you wish to mesh a face,
-    which is a 2D object, you do not need to define a 3D Algorithm and
-    Hypotheses.
-
-    In the <b>Object Browser</b> the structure of the new mesh is
-    displayed as follows:
-    \image html image88.jpg
-    It contains: 
-    <ul>
-      <li>a mesh name (<em>Mesh_mechanic</em>);
-      <li>a reference to the geometrical object on the basis of
-        which the mesh has been constructed (\a mechanic);</li> 
-      <li><b>Applied hypotheses</b> folder containing the references
-        to the hypotheses chosen at the construction of the mesh;</li>
-      <li><b>Applied algorithms</b> folder containing the references
-        to the algorithms chosen at the construction of the mesh.</li> 
-      <li><b>SubMeshes on Face</b> folder containing the sub-meshes
-        defined on geometrical faces. There also can be folders for
-        sub-meshes on vertices, edges, wires, shells, solids and
-        compounds.</li>
-      <li><b>Groups of Faces</b> folder containing the groups of mesh
-        faces. There also can be folders for groups of nodes, edges,
-        volumes 0D elements and balls.</li>
-    </ul>
-
-    There is an alternative way to assign Algorithms and Hypotheses by
-    clicking <b>Assign a set of hypotheses</b> button and selecting among
-    pre-defined sets of algorithms and hypotheses. In addition to the built-in
-    sets of hypotheses, it is possible to create custom sets by editing
-    CustomMeshers.xml file located in the home directory. CustomMeshers.xml
-    file must describe sets of hypotheses in the
-    same way as ${SMESH_ROOT_DIR}/share/salome/resources/smesh/StdMeshers.xml 
-    file does (sets of hypotheses are enclosed between \<hypotheses-set-group\>
-      tags). For example:
-~~~~~~{.xml}
-    <?xml version='1.0' encoding='us-ascii'?>
-    <!DOCTYPE meshers PUBLIC "" "desktop.dtd">
-    <meshers>
-    <hypotheses-set-group>
-        <hypotheses-set name="My favorite hypotheses"
-                        hypos="AutomaticLength"
-                        algos="CompositeSegment_1D, Quadrangle_2D, GHS3D_3D"/>
-    </hypotheses-set-group>
-    </meshers>
-~~~~~~
-    If the file contents are incorrect, there can be an error at
-    activation of Mesh module: <em>"fatal parsing error: error
-    triggered by consumer in line ..."</em>
-<br>
-<center>
-      \image html hypo_sets.png
-      List of sets of hypotheses. Tag <em>[custom]</em> is
-      automatically added to the sets defined by the user.
-</center>
-      \note 
-      - \a "Automatic" in the names of predefined sets of hypotheses
-      does not actually mean that they are suitable for meshing any
-      geometry.
-      - The list of sets of hypotheses can be shorter than in the
-        above image depending on the geometry dimension.

-Consider trying a sample script for construction of a mesh from our 
-\ref tui_creating_meshes_page "TUI Scripts" section.
-
-\anchor evaluate_anchor
-<h2>Evaluating mesh size</h2>
-
-After the mesh object is created and all hypotheses are assigned and
-before \ref compute_anchor "Compute" operation, it is possible to
-calculate the eventual mesh size. For this, select the mesh in
-the <b>Object Browser</b> and from the \b Mesh menu select \b
-Evaluate. The result of evaluation will be displayed in the following
-information box: 
-
-\image html mesh_evaluation_succeed.png
-
-\anchor preview_anchor
-<h2>Previewing the mesh</h2>
-
-Before \ref compute_anchor "the mesh computation", it is also possible
-to see the mesh preview. This operation allows to incrementally
-compute the mesh, dimension by dimension, and to discard an
-unsatisfactory mesh.
-
-For this, select the mesh in the Object Browser. From the \b Mesh menu
-select \b Preview or click "Preview" button in the toolbar or activate
-"Preview" item from the pop-up menu.
-
-<center>
-\image html mesh_precompute.png
-<em>"Preview" button</em>
-</center>
-
-Select <b>1D mesh</b> or <b>2D mesh</b> preview mode in the Preview dialog. 
-

-<br>
-\image html preview_mesh_2D.png "2D mesh preview shows edge mesh elements, computed on geometry faces"
-
-<b>Compute</b> button computes the whole mesh.
-
-When the Preview dialog is closed, the question about the storage of temporarily
-created mesh elements appears:
-
-\image html preview_tmp_data.png
-
-These elements can be kept in the mesh.
-
-
-\anchor submesh_order_anchor
-<h2>Changing sub-mesh priority</h2>
-
-If the mesh contains concurrent \ref constructing_submeshes_page "sub-meshes", 
-it is possible to change the priority of their computation, i.e. to
-change the priority of applying algorithms to the shared sub-shapes of
-the Mesh shape.
-
-<em>To change sub-mesh priority:</em>
-
-Choose "Change sub-mesh priority" from the Mesh menu or a pop-up
-menu. The opened dialog shows a list of sub-meshes in the order of
-their priority. 
-
-There is an example of sub-mesh order modifications taking a Mesh created on a Box
-shape. The main Mesh object:
-<ul>
-  <li><i>1D</i> <b>Wire discretisation</b> with <b>Number of Segments</b>=20</li>
-  <li><i>2D</i> <b>Triangle: Mefisto</b> with Hypothesis<b>Max Element Area</b>
-  </li>
-</ul>
-The first sub-mesh <b>Submesh_1</b> created on <b>Face_1</b> is:
-<ul>
-  <li><i>1D</i> <b>Wire discretisation</b> with <b>Number of Segments</b>=4</li>
-  <li><i>2D</i> <b>Triangle: Mefisto</b> with Hypothesis <b>MaxElementArea</b>=1200</li>
-</ul>
-The second sub-mesh <b>Submesh_2</b> created on <b>Face_2</b> is:
-<ul>
-  <li><i>1D</i> <b>Wire discretisation</b> with <b>Number of Segments</b>=8</li>
-  <li><i>2D</i> <b>Triangle: Mefisto</b> with Hypothesis <b>MaxElementArea</b>=1200</li>
-</ul>
-
-And the last sub-mesh <b>Submesh_3</b> created on <b>Face_3</b> is:
-<ul>
-  <li><i>1D</i> <b>Wire discretisation</b> with <b>Number of Segments</b>=12</li>
-  <li><i>2D</i> <b>Triangle: Mefisto</b> with Hypothesis <b>MaxElementArea</b>=1200</li>
-</ul>
-
-The sub-meshes become concurrent if they share sub-shapes that can be
-meshed with different algorithms (or different hypotheses). In the
-example, we have three sub-meshes with concurrent algorithms, because
-they have different hypotheses.
-
-The first mesh computation is made with:
-<center>
-\image html mesh_order_123.png
-<em>"Mesh order SubMesh_1, SubMesh_2, SubMesh_3"</em></center>
-<center>
-\image html mesh_order_123_res.png
-<em>"Result mesh with order SubMesh_1, SubMesh_2, SubMesh_3 "</em></center>
-
-The next mesh computation is made with:
-<center>
-\image html mesh_order_213.png
-<em>"Mesh order SubMesh_2, SubMesh_1, SubMesh_3"</em></center>
-<center>
-\image html mesh_order_213_res.png
-<em>"Result mesh with order SubMesh_2, SubMesh_1, SubMesh_3 "</em></center>
-
-And the last mesh computation is made with:
-<center>
-\image html mesh_order_321.png
-<em>"Mesh order SubMesh_3, SubMesh_2, SubMesh_1"</em></center>
-<center>\image html mesh_order_321_res.png
-<em>"Result mesh with order SubMesh_3, SubMesh_2, SubMesh_1 "</em></center>
-
-As we can see, each mesh computation has a different number of result
-elements and a different mesh discretization on the shared edges (the edges 
-that are shared between <b>Face_1</b>, <b>Face_2</b> and <b>Face_3</b>)
-
-Additionally, sub-mesh priority (the order of applied algorithms) can
-be modified not only in a separate dialog box, but also in
-the <b>Preview</b>. This helps to preview different mesh results,
-modifying the order of sub-meshes. 
-<center>
-\image html mesh_order_preview.png
-<em>"Preview with sub-mesh priority list box"</em></center>
-
-If there are no concurrent sub-meshes under the Mesh object, the user
-will see the following information.
-<center>
-\image html mesh_order_no_concurrent.png
-<em>"No concurrent submeshes detected"</em></center>
-
-
-\anchor compute_anchor
-<h2>Computing the mesh</h2>
-
-It is equally possible to skip  \ref evaluate_anchor "the Evaluation"
-and \ref preview_anchor "the Preview" and to \b Compute the mesh after
-the hypotheses are assigned. For this, select your mesh in
-the <b>Object Browser</b>. From the \b Mesh menu or the context menu
-select \b Compute or click \a "Compute" button of the toolbar.
-
-<center>
-\image html image28.png
-<em>"Compute" button</em>
-</center>
-
-After the mesh computation finishes, the Mesh Computation information
-box appears. If you close this box and click "Compute" button again,
-without previously changing meshing parameters, the mesh will NOT be
-re-computed and the Mesh Computation information box will be shown
-with the same contents. (To fully re-compute the mesh, invoke 
-\ref clear_mesh_anchor "Clear Mesh Data" command before). 
-
-\anchor meshing_result_anchor
-If the mesh computation has been a success, the box shows information
-on the number of entities of different types in the mesh.
-
-\image html meshcomputationsucceed.png
-
-\anchor meshing_failed_anchor
-If the mesh computation has failed, the information about the cause of the
-failure is provided in \b Errors table.
-
-\image html meshcomputationfail.png
-
-After you select an error in \b Errors table, <b>Show Sub-shape</b> button allows
-visualizing in magenta the geometrical entity meshing of which failed
-(Name of this entity or its ID and type is shown in \a Sub-shape column).

-
-<b>Publish Sub-shape</b> button publishes the sub-shape, whose meshing

-allows analyzing the problematic geometry and creating a sub-mesh on it in
-order to locally tune the hypotheses.
-
-If the failure is caused by an invalid input mesh and the algorithm has
-found which mesh entities are bad, <b>Show bad Mesh</b> 
-button appears in the dialog. Clicked, it shows the bad mesh entities in

-
-For example you can generate a 2D mesh, modify it using e.g.

-- Compute the mesh. 2D mesh is generated.
-- Apply \ref pattern_mapping_page.
-- Define 3D meshing algorithms without modifying 1D and 2D algorithms

-- Compute the mesh. 3D mesh is generated.
-
-\note Nodes and elements added \ref adding_nodes_and_elements_page

+flow: nodes on vertices are created first, then edges are divided into
+segments using nodes on vertices; the nodes of segments are then
+used to mesh faces; then the nodes of faces are used to mesh
+solids. This automatically assures the conformity of the mesh.
+
+It is required to choose a meshing algorithm for every dimension of
+sub-shapes up to the highest dimension to be generated. Note
+that some algorithms generate elements of several dimensions, and
+others of only one. It is not necessary to define meshing
+parameters for all dimensions at once; you can start from 1D
+meshing parameters only, compute the 1D mesh, then define 2D meshing
+parameters and compute the 2D mesh (note that 1D mesh will not be
+re-computed).
+
+An algorithm of a certain dimension chosen at mesh creation is applied
+to discretize every sub-shape of this dimension. It is possible to
+specify a different algorithm or hypothesis to be applied to one or
+a group of sub-shapes by creating a :ref:`constructing_submeshes_page`. 
+You can specify no algorithms at all at mesh object
+creation and specify the meshing parameters on sub-meshes only; then
+only the sub-shapes, for which an algorithm and a hypothesis (if any)
+have been defined will be discretized.
+
+.. note:: Construction of a mesh on a geometry includes at least two (:ref:`create_mesh_anchor` and :ref:`compute_anchor`) of the following steps:
+
+		* :ref:`create_mesh_anchor`, where you can specify meshing parameters to apply to all sub-shapes of the main shape.
+		* :ref:`constructing_submeshes_page`, (optional) where you can specify meshing parameters to apply to the selected sub-shapes.
+		* :ref:`evaluate_anchor` (optional) can be used to know an approximate number of elements before their actual generation.
+		* :ref:`preview_anchor` (optional) can be used to generate mesh of only lower dimension(s) in order to visually estimate it before full mesh generation, which can be much longer.
+		* :ref:`submesh_order_anchor` (optional) can be useful if there are concurrent sub-meshes defined.
+		* :ref:`compute_anchor` uses defined meshing parameters to generate mesh elements.
+		* :ref:`edit_anchor` (optional) can be used to :ref:`modifying_meshes_page` the mesh of a lower dimension before :ref:`compute_anchor` elements of an upper dimension.

+
+Creation of a mesh object
+#########################
+
+**To construct a mesh:**
+
+#. Select a geometrical object for meshing.
+#. In the **Mesh** menu select **Create Mesh** or click **"Create Mesh"** button in the toolbar. 
+
+	.. image:: ../images/image32.png
+		:align: center
+
+	.. centered::
+		**"Create Mesh" button**
+
+	The following dialog box will appear: 
+
+	.. image:: ../images/createmesh-inv.png
+		:align: center
+  
+#. To filter off irrelevant meshing algorithms, you can select **Mesh Type** in the corresponding list from **Any, Hexahedral, Tetrahedral, Triangular** and **Quadrilateral** (there can be less items for the geometry of lower dimensions). Selection of a mesh type hides all meshing algorithms that cannot generate elements of this type.
+
+#. Apply :ref:`basic_meshing_algos_page` and :ref:`about_hypo_page` which will be used to compute this mesh.
+
+	"Create mesh" dialog box contains several tab pages titled **3D**, **2D**, **1D** and **0D**. The title of each page reflects the dimension of the sub-shapes the algorithms listed on this page affect and the maximal dimension of elements the algorithms generate. For example, **3D** page lists the algorithms that affect 3D sub-shapes (solids) and generate 3D mesh elements (tetrahedra, hexahedra etc.)
+
+	As soon as you have selected an algorithm, you can create a hypothesis (or select an already created one). A set of accessible hypotheses includes only the hypotheses that can be used by the selected algorithm.
+
+	.. note::
+		* Some page(s) can be disabled if the geometrical object does not include shapes (sub-shapes) of the corresponding dimension(s). For example, if the input object is a geometrical face, **3D** page is disabled.
+		* Some algorithms affect the geometry of several dimensions, i.e. 1D+2D or 1D+2D+3D. If such an algorithm is selected, the dialog pages related to the corresponding lower dimensions are disabled.
+		* **0D** page refers to 0D geometry (vertices) rather than to 0D elements. Mesh module does not provide algorithms that produce 0D elements. Currently **0D** page provides only one algorithm "Segments around vertex" that allows specifying the required size of mesh edges about the selected vertex (or vertices).
+
+	For example, you need to mesh a 3D object.
+
+	First, you can change a default name of your mesh in the **Name** box. Then check that the selected geometrical object indicated in **Geometry** field, is what you wish to mesh; if not, select the correct object in the Object Browser. Click "Select" button near **Geometry** field if the name of the object has not yet appeared in **Geometry** field.
+		.. image:: ../images/image120.png
+			:align: center
+
+		.. centered::
+			**"Select" button**
+
+	Now you can define 3D Algorithm and 3D Hypotheses, which will be applied to discretize the solids of your geometrical object using 3D elements. Click the **"Add Hypothesis"** button to create  and add a hypothesis.
+		.. image:: ../images/image121.png
+			:align: center
+
+		.. centered::
+			**"Add Hypothesis" button**
+
+	Click the **"Plus"** button to enable adding more additional hypotheses.
+
+	Click the **"Edit Hypothesis"** button to change the values for the current hypothesis.
+		.. image:: ../images/image122.png
+			:align: center
+
+		.. centered::
+			**"Edit Hypothesis" button**
+
+	Most 2D and 3D algorithms can work without hypotheses using default meshing parameters. Some algorithms do not require any hypotheses. After selection of an algorithm "Hypothesis" field of the dialog can contain:
+    
+	* **\<Default\>** if the algorithm can work using default parameters.
+	* **\<None\>** if the algorithm requires a hypothesis defining its parameters.
+	* If the algorithm does not use hypotheses, this field is grayed.
+    
+	After selection of an algorithm **Add. Hypothesis** field can contain:
+    
+	* **\<None\>** if the algorithm can be tuned using an additional hypothesis.
+	* If the algorithm does not use additional hypotheses, this field is grayed.
+    
+
+	Proceed in the same way with 2D and 1D Algorithms and Hypotheses that will be used to mesh faces and edges of your geometry. (Note that any object has edges, even if their existence is not apparent, for example, a sphere has 4 edges). Note that the choice of hypotheses and lower dimension algorithms depends on the higher dimension algorithm.
+
+	If you wish you can select other algorithms and/or hypotheses for meshing some sub-shapes of your CAD model by :ref:`constructing_submeshes_page`.
+
+	Some algorithms generate mesh of several dimensions, while others produce mesh of only one dimension. In the latter case there must be one Algorithm and zero or several Hypotheses for each dimension of your object, otherwise you will not get any mesh at all. Of course, if you wish to mesh a face, which is a 2D object, you do not need to define a 3D Algorithm and Hypotheses.
+
+	In the **Object Browser** the structure of the new mesh is displayed as follows:
+
+	.. image:: ../images/image88.jpg
+		:align: center
+
+	It contains: 
+    
+		* a mesh name (**Mesh_mechanic**);
+		* a reference to the geometrical object on the basis of which the mesh has been constructed (*mechanic*); 
+		* **Applied hypotheses** folder containing the references to the hypotheses chosen at the construction of the mesh;
+		* **Applied algorithms** folder containing the references to the algorithms chosen at the construction of the mesh. 
+		* **SubMeshes on Face** folder containing the sub-meshes defined on geometrical faces. There also can be folders for sub-meshes on vertices, edges, wires, shells, solids and compounds.
+		* **Groups of Faces** folder containing the groups of mesh faces. There also can be folders for groups of nodes, edges, volumes 0D elements and balls.
+    
+
+	There is an alternative way to assign Algorithms and Hypotheses by clicking **Assign a set of hypotheses** button and selecting among pre-defined sets of algorithms and hypotheses. In addition to the built-in sets of hypotheses, it is possible to create custom sets by editing CustomMeshers.xml file located in the home directory. CustomMeshers.xml file must describe sets of hypotheses in the same way as ${SMESH_ROOT_DIR}/share/salome/resources/smesh/StdMeshers.xml file does (sets of hypotheses are enclosed between \<hypotheses-set-group\> tags). For example:
+	::
+
+		<?xml version='1.0' encoding='us-ascii'?>
+		<!DOCTYPE meshers PUBLIC "" "desktop.dtd">
+		<meshers>
+		<hypotheses-set-group>
+			<hypotheses-set name="My favorite hypotheses"
+                        	hypos="AutomaticLength"
+                        	algos="CompositeSegment_1D, Quadrangle_2D, GHS3D_3D"/>
+		</hypotheses-set-group>
+		</meshers>
+
+	If the file contents are incorrect, there can be an error at activation of Mesh module: **"fatal parsing error: error triggered by consumer in line ..."**
+
+	.. image:: ../images/hypo_sets.png
+		:align: center
+
+	List of sets of hypotheses. Tag **[custom]** is automatically added to the sets defined by the user.
+
+	.. note::
+		* *"Automatic"* in the names of predefined sets of hypotheses does not actually mean that they are suitable for meshing any geometry.
+		* The list of sets of hypotheses can be shorter than in the above image depending on the geometry dimension.
+  
+
+Consider trying a sample script for construction of a mesh from our :ref:`tui_creating_meshes_page` section.
+
+.. _evaluate_anchor:
+
+Evaluating mesh size
+####################
+
+After the mesh object is created and all hypotheses are assigned and before :ref:`compute_anchor` operation, it is possible to calculate the eventual mesh size. For this, select the mesh in the **Object Browser** and from the **Mesh** menu select **Evaluate**.
+The result of evaluation will be displayed in the following information box: 
+
+	.. image:: ../images/mesh_evaluation_succeed.png
+		:align: center
+
+.. _preview_anchor:
+
+Previewing the mesh
+###################
+
+Before :ref:`compute_anchor` , it is also possible to see the mesh preview. This operation allows to incrementally compute the mesh, dimension by dimension, and to discard an unsatisfactory mesh.
+
+For this, select the mesh in the Object Browser. From the **Mesh** menu select **Preview** or click "Preview" button in the toolbar or activate "Preview" item from the pop-up menu.
+
+.. image:: ../images/mesh_precompute.png
+	:align: center
+
+.. centered::
+        **"Preview" button**
+
+Select **1D mesh** or **2D mesh** preview mode in the Preview dialog. 
+
+.. image:: ../images/preview_mesh_1D.png 
+	:align: center
+
+.. centered::
+	"1D mesh preview shows nodes computed on geometry edges"
+
+
+.. image:: ../images/preview_mesh_2D.png 
+	:align: center
+
+.. centered::
+	"2D mesh preview shows edge mesh elements, computed on geometry faces"
+
+
+**Compute** button computes the whole mesh.
+
+When the Preview dialog is closed, the question about the storage of temporarily created mesh elements appears:
+
+.. image:: ../images/preview_tmp_data.png
+	:align: center
+
+These elements can be kept in the mesh.
+
+
+.. _submesh_order_anchor:
+
+Changing sub-mesh priority
+##########################
+
+If the mesh contains concurrent :ref:`constructing_submeshes_page`, it is possible to change the priority of their computation, i.e. to change the priority of applying algorithms to the shared sub-shapes of the Mesh shape.
+
+**To change sub-mesh priority:**
+
+Choose "Change sub-mesh priority" from the Mesh menu or a pop-up menu. The opened dialog shows a list of sub-meshes in the order of their priority. 
+
+There is an example of sub-mesh order modifications taking a Mesh created on a Box shape. The main Mesh object:
+
+* *1D* **Wire discretisation** with **Number of Segments** =20
+* *2D* **Triangle: Mefisto** with Hypothesis **Max Element Area**
+  
+
+The first sub-mesh **Submesh_1** created on **Face_1** is:
+
+* *1D* **Wire discretisation** with **Number of Segments** =4
+* *2D* **Triangle: Mefisto** with Hypothesis **MaxElementArea** =1200
+
+The second sub-mesh **Submesh_2** created on **Face_2** is:
+
+* *1D* **Wire discretisation** with **Number of Segments** =8
+* *2D* **Triangle: Mefisto** with Hypothesis **MaxElementArea** =1200
+
+
+And the last sub-mesh **Submesh_3** created on **Face_3** is:
+
+* *1D* **Wire discretisation** with **Number of Segments** =12
+* *2D* **Triangle: Mefisto** with Hypothesis **MaxElementArea** =1200
+
+
+The sub-meshes become concurrent if they share sub-shapes that can be meshed with different algorithms (or different hypotheses). In the example, we have three sub-meshes with concurrent algorithms, because they have different hypotheses.
+
+The first mesh computation is made with:
+
+.. image:: ../images/mesh_order_123.png
+	:align: center
+
+.. centered::
+	**"Mesh order SubMesh_1, SubMesh_2, SubMesh_3"**
+
+
+.. image:: ../images/mesh_order_123_res.png
+	:align: center
+
+.. centered::
+	**"Result mesh with order SubMesh_1, SubMesh_2, SubMesh_3 "**
+
+The next mesh computation is made with:
+
+.. image:: ../images/mesh_order_213.png
+	:align: center
+
+.. centered::
+	**"Mesh order SubMesh_2, SubMesh_1, SubMesh_3"**
+
+.. image:: ../images/mesh_order_213_res.png
+	:align: center
+
+.. centered::
+	**"Result mesh with order SubMesh_2, SubMesh_1, SubMesh_3 "**
+
+And the last mesh computation is made with:
+
+.. image:: ../images/mesh_order_321.png
+	:align: center
+
+.. centered::
+	**"Mesh order SubMesh_3, SubMesh_2, SubMesh_1"**
+	
+
+.. image:: ../images/mesh_order_321_res.png
+	:align: center
+
+.. centered::
+	**"Result mesh with order SubMesh_3, SubMesh_2, SubMesh_1 "**
+
+As we can see, each mesh computation has a different number of result
+elements and a different mesh discretization on the shared edges (the edges 
+that are shared between **Face_1**, **Face_2** and **Face_3**)
+
+Additionally, sub-mesh priority (the order of applied algorithms) can
+be modified not only in a separate dialog box, but also in
+the **Preview**. This helps to preview different mesh results,
+modifying the order of sub-meshes. 
+
+.. image:: ../images/mesh_order_preview.png
+	:align: center
+
+.. centered::
+	**"Preview with sub-mesh priority list box"**
+
+If there are no concurrent sub-meshes under the Mesh object, the user
+will see the following information.
+
+.. image:: ../images/mesh_order_no_concurrent.png
+	:align: center
+
+.. centered::
+	**"No concurrent submeshes detected"**
+
+
+.. _compute_anchor:
+
+Computing the mesh
+##################
+
+It is equally possible to skip  :ref:`evaluate_anchor`
+and :ref:`preview_anchor` and to **Compute** the mesh after
+the hypotheses are assigned. For this, select your mesh in
+the **Object Browser**. From the **Mesh** menu or the context menu
+select **Compute** or click *"Compute"* button of the toolbar.
+
+.. image:: ../images/image28.png
+	:align: center
+
+.. centered::
+	**"Compute" button**
+
+After the mesh computation finishes, the Mesh Computation information
+box appears. If you close this box and click "Compute" button again,
+without previously changing meshing parameters, the mesh will NOT be
+re-computed and the Mesh Computation information box will be shown
+with the same contents. (To fully re-compute the mesh, invoke 
+:ref:`clear_mesh_anchor` command before). 
+
+.. _meshing_result_anchor:
+
+Meshing Results
+===============
+
+If the mesh computation has been a success, the box shows information on the number of entities of different types in the mesh.
+
+.. image:: ../images/meshcomputationsucceed.png
+	:align: center
+
+.. _meshing_failed_anchor:
+
+Meshing Failed
+==============
+
+If the mesh computation has failed, the information about the cause of the failure is provided in **Errors** table.
+
+.. image:: ../images/meshcomputationfail.png
+	:align: center
+
+After you select an error in **Errors** table, **Show Sub-shape** button allows
+visualizing in magenta the geometrical entity meshing of which failed
+(Name of this entity or its ID and type is shown in *Sub-shape* column).
+
+.. image:: ../images/failed_computation.png 
+	:align: center
+
+.. centered::
+	3D algorithm failed to compute mesh on a box shown using **Show Sub-shape** button
+
+**Publish Sub-shape** button publishes the sub-shape, whose meshing
+has failed, in the Geometry component as a child of the main shape, which
+allows analyzing the problematic geometry and creating a sub-mesh on it in
+order to locally tune the hypotheses.
+
+If the failure is caused by an invalid input mesh and the algorithm has
+found which mesh entities are bad, **Show bad Mesh** 
+button appears in the dialog. Clicked, it shows the bad mesh entities in
+the Viewer in magenta. Sometimes the shown mesh entities are too small
+or/and hidden by other mesh elements. They can be seen after
+switching the mesh to Wireframe visualization mode or switching off
+the visualization of faces and volumes (if any).
+
+**Bad Mesh to Group** button creates groups of bad mesh entities to facilitate their analysis.
+

+Edges bounding a hole in the surface are shown in magenta using **Show bad Mesh** button
+
+.. note::
+	Mesh Computation Information box does not appear if you set :ref:`show_comp_result_pref` preference to the "Never" value. This option gives the possibility to control mesh computation reporting. There are the following possibilities: always show the information box, show only if an error occurs or never. By default, the information box is always shown after mesh computation operation.
+
+.. _edit_anchor:
+
+Editing the mesh
+################
+
+It is possible to :ref:`modifying_meshes_page` of a 
+lower dimension before generation of the mesh of a higher dimension.
+
+For example you can generate a 2D mesh, modify it using e.g. :ref:`pattern_mapping_page`, and then generate a 3D mesh basing on the modified 2D mesh. The workflow is as follows:
+
+* Define 1D and 2D meshing algorithms.
+* Compute the mesh. 2D mesh is generated.
+* Apply :ref:`pattern_mapping_page`.
+* Define 3D meshing algorithms without modifying 1D and 2D algorithms and hypotheses.
+* Compute the mesh. 3D mesh is generated.
+
+.. note::
+	Nodes and elements added :ref:`adding_nodes_and_elements_page` cannot be used in this workflow because the manually created entities are not attached to any geometry and thus (usually) cannot be found by the mesher paving a geometry.

-
-\section submesh_shape_section How to get a sub-shape for sub-mesh construction
-
-A sub-shape to create a sub-mesh on should be retrieved from the main shape
-in one of the following ways: <ul>
-<li> In Geometry module, via <em>New Entity > Explode</em> menu.</li>
-<li> In Geometry module, by creation of a group (<em>New Entity >
-    Group > Create Group</em> menu).</li> 
-<li> In Mesh module, by

-  already computed.</li> 
-<li> In Mesh module, by clicking <em>Publish Sub-shape</em> button in a
-      dialog showing \ref meshing_failed_anchor "meshing errors".</li> 
-</ul>
-
-\section submesh_priority How hypotheses are selected among sub-meshes
-
-Internally, definition of meshing parameters to apply for
-discretization of a certain sub-shape, for example an edge of a
-compound of solids, starts from searching an algorithm, 1D as for the
-edge. The following sub-shapes are sequentially checked for presence
-of a sub-mesh where 1D algorithm is assigned:
-<ul>
-<li> the \b edge itself</li>
-<li> <b>groups of edges</b> containing the edge, if any</li>
-<li> \b wires sharing the edge</li>
-<li> \b faces sharing the edge</li>
-<li> <b>groups of faces</b> sharing the edge, if any</li>
-<li> \b shells sharing the edge</li>
-<li> \b solids sharing the edge</li>
-<li> <b>groups of solids</b> sharing the edge, if any</li>
-<li> the <b>main shape</b></li>
-</ul>
-(This sequence of sub-shapes defines the priority of sub-meshes. Thus more
-local, i.e. assigned to sub-shape of lower dimension, algorithms and
-hypotheses have higher priority during the search of hypotheses to
-apply.)
-
-As soon as a 1D algorithm is found, the search stops and the same
-sequence of sub-shapes is checked to find the main and additional 1D
-hypotheses, which can be taken into account by the found 1D algorithm. 
-
-The multi-dimensional algorithms have a higher priority than
-uni-dimensional ones if they are assigned to sub-meshes of the
-same priority.
-
-If meshing parameters are defined on sub-meshes of the same priority,
-for example, different 1D hypotheses are assigned to two faces sharing
-an edge, the hypothesis assigned to a sub-shape with a lower ID will
-be used for meshing. You can \ref submesh_order_anchor "change" mutual
-priority of such concurrent sub-meshes. 
-
-\section submesh_definition How to construct a sub-mesh
-
-\n Construction of a sub-mesh consists of:

-<li>Selecting a mesh which will encapsulate the sub-mesh</li>
-<li>Selecting a sub-shape for meshing</li>
-<li>Applying one or several
-\ref about_hypo_page "hypotheses" and

-
-It allows to define the \b Name, the parent \b Mesh and the \b
-Geometry (e.g. a face if the parent mesh has been built on box) of the
-sub-mesh. You can define meshing algorithms and hypotheses in the same way as
-in \ref constructing_meshes_page "Create mesh" dialog. 
-
-Later you can change the applied hypotheses or their parameters in

-\b Geometry by picking mesh elements computed on a sub-shape of interest
-in the 3D Viewer, i.e. you do not have to extract this sub-shape
-in Geometry module beforehand. To start element selection, press \a
-Selection button to the right of \b Geometry label. If this button is

+A sub-shape to create a sub-mesh on should be retrieved from the main shape
+in one of the following ways: 
+
+	* In Geometry module, via **New Entity > Explode** menu.
+	* In Geometry module, by creation of a group (**New Entity > Group > Create Group** menu). 
+	* In Mesh module, by :ref:`subshape_by_mesh_elem` generated on a sub-shape of interest. This way is accessible if the mesh is already computed. 
+	* In Mesh module, by clicking **Publish Sub-shape** button in a dialog showing :ref:`meshing_failed_anchor`. 
+
+
+.. :submesh_priority: 
+
+How hypotheses are selected among sub-meshes
+############################################
+
+Internally, definition of meshing parameters to apply for
+discretization of a certain sub-shape, for example an edge of a
+compound of solids, starts from searching an algorithm, 1D as for the
+edge. The following sub-shapes are sequentially checked for presence
+of a sub-mesh where 1D algorithm is assigned:
+
+	* the **edge** itself
+	* **groups of edges** containing the edge, if any
+	* **wires** sharing the edge
+	* **faces** sharing the edge
+	* **groups of faces** sharing the edge, if any
+	* **shells** sharing the edge
+	* **solids** sharing the edge
+	* **groups of solids** sharing the edge, if any
+	* the **main shape**
+
+(This sequence of sub-shapes defines the priority of sub-meshes. Thus more
+local, i.e. assigned to sub-shape of lower dimension, algorithms and
+hypotheses have higher priority during the search of hypotheses to
+apply.)
+
+As soon as a 1D algorithm is found, the search stops and the same
+sequence of sub-shapes is checked to find the main and additional 1D
+hypotheses, which can be taken into account by the found 1D algorithm. 
+
+The multi-dimensional algorithms have a higher priority than
+uni-dimensional ones if they are assigned to sub-meshes of the
+same priority.
+
+If meshing parameters are defined on sub-meshes of the same priority,
+for example, different 1D hypotheses are assigned to two faces sharing
+an edge, the hypothesis assigned to a sub-shape with a lower ID will
+be used for meshing. You can :ref:`submesh_order_anchor` mutual
+priority of such concurrent sub-meshes. 
+
+.. _submesh_definition: 
+
+How to construct a sub-mesh
+###########################
+
+.. note:: Construction of a sub-mesh consists of:
+		* Selecting a mesh which will encapsulate the sub-mesh
+		* Selecting a sub-shape for meshing
+		* Applying one or several :ref:`about_hypo_page` and :ref:`basic_meshing_algos_page` which will be used for discretization of this sub-shape.
+
+
+**To construct a sub-mesh:**
+From the **Mesh** menu select **Create Sub-mesh** or click **"Create Sum-mesh"** button in the toolbar.
+
+	.. image:: ../images/image33.gif
+		:align: center
+
+	.. centered::
+		**"Create Sub-mesh" button**
+
+The following dialog box will appear:
+
+	.. image:: ../images/createmesh-inv2.png
+		:align: center
+
+It allows to define the **Name**, the parent **Mesh** and the **Geometry** (e.g. a face if the parent mesh has been built on box) of the sub-mesh. You can define meshing algorithms and hypotheses in the same way as in :ref:`constructing_meshes_page` dialog. 
+
+Later you can change the applied hypotheses or their parameters in :ref:`editing_meshes_page` dialog. Mesh entities generated using changed hypotheses are automatically removed.
+
+.. _subshape_by_mesh_elem:
+
+Subshape by mesh element
+========================
+
+If the parent mesh is already computed, then you can define the **Geometry** by picking mesh elements computed on a sub-shape of interest in the 3D Viewer, i.e. you do not have to extract this sub-shape in Geometry module beforehand. To start element selection, press *Selection* button to the right of **Geometry** label. If this button is already down, then click it to release and then click it again. The following pop-up menu allowing to choose a way of geometry definition will appear.
+
+.. image:: ../images/choose_geom_selection_way.png
+	:align: center
+
+**Direct geometry selection** enables selecting the sub-shape in the Objec Browser.
+**Find geometry by mesh element selection** activates the following dialog.
+
+.. image:: ../images/find_geom_by_mesh_elem.png
+	:align: center
+
+In this dialog, **Element Type** defines a kind of element to pick in the Viewer. Instead of picking an element in the Viewer, you can type its ID in **Element ID** field. **Geometry name** field allows defining a name of the sub-shape, with which the sub-shape will appear in the Object Browser (if not yet there).
+
+
+.. _submesh_tree:
+
+Sub-mesh in the Object Browser
+##############################
+
+In the Object Browser the structure of the new sub-mesh will be displayed as follows:
+
+	.. image:: ../images/image10.jpg
+		:align: center
+
+It contains:
+	* a sub-mesh name (*SubMeshFace1*)
+	* a reference to the geometrical object on the basis of which the sub-mesh has been constructed (**Cylindrical Face_1**);
+	* **Applied hypotheses** folder containing references to hypotheses assigned to the sub-mesh;
+	* **Applied algorithms** folder containing references to algorithms assigned to the sub-mesh.

-\n Extrusion is used to build mesh elements of plus one

+Extrusion
+*********
+
+Extrusion is used to build mesh elements of plus one dimension than the input ones. Boundary elements around generated mesh of plus one dimension are additionally created. All created elements can be automatically grouped. Extrusion can be used to create a :ref:`extrusion_struct`:"structured mesh from scratch".
+
+.. image:: ../images/extrusion_box.png
+	:align: center
+
+.. centered::
+	"If you extrude several quadrangles, you get exactly the same mesh as if you meshed a geometrical box (except for that the initial quadrangles can be incorrectly oriented): quadrangles and segments are created on the boundary of the generated mesh"
+
+Any node, segment or 2D element can be extruded. Each type of elements is extruded into a corresponding type of result elements:
+
++----------------------+--------------------+
+| **Extruded element** | **Result element** |
++======================+====================+
+|Node                  | Segment            |
++----------------------+--------------------+
+|Segment               | Quadrilateral      |
++----------------------+--------------------+
+|Triangle              | Pentahedron        |
++----------------------+--------------------+
+|Quadrilateral         | Hexahedron         |
++----------------------+--------------------+
+|Polygon               | Polyhedron         |
++----------------------+--------------------+
+|Hexagonal polygon     | Hexagonal prism    |
++----------------------+--------------------+
+
+
+When 2D elements are extruded, in addition to 3D elements segments are created on the ribs of the resulting 3D mesh. Free edges of input 2D elements generate logically horizontal rib segments. Logically vertical rib segments are generated from the nodes belonging to a sole input 2D element (the figure below illustrates this rule).

-\page extrusion_along_path_page Extrusion along Path
-
-\n In principle, <b>Extrusion along Path</b> works in the same way
-as \ref extrusion_page "Extrusion", the main difference is that we
-define not a vector, but a path of extrusion which must be an 1D mesh
-or 1D sub-mesh.
-To get an idea of how this algorithm works, examine several examples,
-starting from the most simple case of extrusion along a straight edge.
-In the examples the sample mesh will be extruded along different
-paths and with different parameters.
-This 2D mesh has two quadrangle faces and seven edges. Look
-at the picture, where white digits are the node numbers and green
-are the element numbers:

-  Note that only the displacement of the <b>Base Point</b> exactly
-  equals to the path, and all other extruded elements simply keep
-  their position relatively to the <b>Base Point</b> at each
