\page viewing_meshes_overview_page Viewing meshes
\n After definition of algorithms and hypotheses a new mesh is listed
in the Object Browser. Right-click on it and select \b Compute - the
mesh will be automatically displayed in the <b>VTK 3D Viewer</b>.
Alternatively click <b>Display only</b> to hide all other objects at
the same time.
<b>VTK 3D Viewer</b> is described in detail in the documentation on <b>GUI module</b>.
\n After the mesh has appeared in the Viewer, you can select it with
left mouse click and get information about it, change its
presentation parameters and access to other useful options by
right-clicking on the selected mesh.
