<h2>Adaptive hypothesis</h2>
<b>Adaptive</b> hypothesis allows to split edges into segments with a
-length that depends on curvature of edges and faces and is limited
-from up and down. In addition length of a segment depends on lengths
-of adjacent segments (that can't differ more than twice) and on
+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.
