**Import Elements from Another Mesh** algorithms allow to
define the mesh of a geometrical
object by importing suitably located mesh elements from another
-mesh. The mesh elements to import from the other mesh should be contained in
+mesh. The algorithms import elements whose all nodes lye on the geometry
+being meshed.
+The mesh elements to import from the other mesh should be contained in
groups. If several groups are used to mesh the same geometry, validity of
nodal connectivity of result mesh must be assured by connectivity of
the source mesh; no geometrical checks are performed to merge
To apply this algorithm select the edge to be meshed (indicated in
the field **Geometry** of **Create mesh** dialog box),

The following dialog box will appear:

* **To copy mesh** checkbox allows to import not only the edges of the selected **Groups of Edges**, but the whole source mesh. In this case **To copy groups** checkbox allows to create the same groups as in the imported source mesh.
-**Import 1D-2D Elements from Another Mesh** algorithm allows to define the mesh of a geometrical face (or group of faces) by importing mesh faces contained in a group (or groups) from another (or this) mesh. 1D elements on the boundary of the geometrical face (if not yet present) are also created by the algorithm in conformity with the created 2D elements.
