To create a <b> Smoothing Surface</b> in the <b>Main Menu</b> select <b>New Entity - >
Advanced - > SmoothingSurface </b>
-Specify the \b Name of the surface and the list of \b Points, from which it is approximated and press "Apply" or "Apply & Close" button.

-\note The dialog accepts compounds of points as well as single nodes.
+In this dialog you can specify the following parameters:
+- \b Name of the surface;
+- the list of \b Points or compounds of points, from which it is approximated;
+- <b>Max nbr of Bezier pieces</b> in the resulting surface;
+- <b>Max BSpline surface degree</b> of the resulting BSpline surface;
+- <b>3D tolerance of initial approximation</b>
-The result of the operation will be a GEOM_Object(Surface).
+\note <b>3D tolerance of initial approximation</b> represents a tolerance of
+initial plate surface approximation. If this parameter is equal to 0 (default),
+its value is automatically computed as <em> max(0.0001, 10*error)</em>,
+where <em>error</em> is a 3D tolerance of the surface representing a maximal
+distance between computed plate surface and given points.

+<b>TUI Command:</b> <em>geompy.MakeSmoothingSurface(thelPoints, theNbMax, theDegMax, theDMax)</em>, where:
+- \em thelPoints is a list of points or compounds of points;
+- \em theNbMax maximum number of Bezier pieces in the resulting surface;
+- \em theDegMax maximum degree;
+- \em theDMax specifies 3D tolerance of initial approximation
