+Quadrangle parameters is a hypothesis for Quadrangle (Mapping).
+
+Base vertex parameter allows using Quadrangle (Mapping)
+algorithm for meshing of triangular faces. In this case it is
+necessary to select the vertex, which will be used as the fourth edge
+(degenerated).

+
+This parameter can be also used to mesh a segment of a circular face.
+Please, consider that there is a limitation on the selection of the
+vertex for the faces built with the angle > 180 degrees (see the picture).
+

+
+In this case, selection of a wrong vertex for the Base vertex
+parameter will generate a wrong mesh. The picture below
+shows the good (left) and the bad (right) results of meshing.

+
+Type parameter is used on faces with a different number of
+segments on opposite sides to define the algorithm of transition
+between them. The following types are available:
+
+
+- Standard is the default case, when both triangles and quadrangles
+ are possible in the transition area along the finer meshed sides.
+- Triangle preference forces building only triangles in the
+ transition area along the finer meshed sides.
+ This type corresponds to Triangle Preference additional
+ hypothesis, which is obsolete now.
+- Quadrangle preference forces building only quadrangles in the
+ transition area along the finer meshed sides. This hypothesis has a
+ restriction: the total quantity of segments on all
+ four sides of the face must be even (divisible by 2).
+ This type corresponds to Quadrangle Preference
+ additional hypothesis, which is obsolete now.
+- Quadrangle preference (reversed) works in the same way and
+with the same restriction as Quadrangle preference, but
+ the transition area is located along the coarser meshed sides.
+- Reduced type forces building only quadrangles and the transition
+ between the sides is made gradually, layer by layer. This type has
+ a limitation on the number of segments: one pair of opposite sides must have
+ the same number of segments, the other pair must have an even difference
+ between the numbers of segments on the sides.

-This algorithm can be used only together with Quadrangle (Mapping)
-algorithm. It allows to build quadrangular meshes even if the number
-of nodes at the opposite edges of a meshed face is not equal,
-otherwise this mesh will contain some triangular elements.
-This hypothesis has one restriction on its work: the total quantity of
-segments on all four sides of the face must be even (divisible by 2).
