+Geometry module preferences are described in the
+\subpage geometry_preferences_page section of SALOME Geometry Help.
Almost all geometry module functionalities are accessible via
\subpage geompy_page "Geometry module Python Interface"
-Also it can be useful to have a look at the \subpage geompypkg_page "documentation on GEOM python packages".
+Other functions are available in <a class="el" target="_new" href="../../tui/GEOM/docutils/index.html">salome.geom python package</a>.
