<h1>Merging Elements</h1>

<p><img src="i_blue.jpg" x-maintain-ratio="TRUE" width="30px" height="30px" border="0" class="img_whs1"> This functionality allows to merge coincident elements
 of a mesh selectable in the dialog box. </p>

<p><img src="pics/mergeelems.png" x-maintain-ratio="TRUE" width="313px" height="221px" border="0" class="img_whs2"></p>

<p>In this picture you see a triangle which coincides with one of the elements
 of the mesh. After we apply <span style="font-weight: bold;"><B>Merge Elements</B></span>
 functionality, the triangle will be completely merged with the mesh. </p>
