 ##   Refer to the documentation to check if some function has such possibility.

+## It is possible to customize the representation of the geometrical
+## data in the data tree; this can be done by using folders. A folder can
+## be created in the study tree using function 
+## \ref geomBuilder.geomBuilder.NewFolder() "NewFolder()" 
+## (by default it is created under the "Geometry" root object). 
+## As soon as folder is created, any published geometry object 
+## can be moved into it.
+##  
+## For example:
+## 
+## @code
+## import salome
+## from salome.geom import geomBuilder
+## geompy = geomBuilder.New(salome.myStudy)
+## box = geompy.MakeBoxDXDYDZ(100, 100, 100, "Box") 
+## # the box was created and published in the study
+## folder = geompy.NewFolder("Primitives")
+## # an empty "Primitives" folder was created under default "Geometry" root object
+## geompy.PutToFolder(box, folder)
+## # the box was moved into "Primitives" folder
+## @endcode
+## 
+## Subfolders are also can be created by specifying another folder as a parent:
+## 
+## @code
+## subfolder = geompy.NewFolder("3D", folder)
+## # "3D" folder was created under "Primitives" folder
+## @endcode
+## 
+## @note
+## - Folder container is just a representation layer object that
+## deals with already published objects only. So, any geometry object 
+## should be published in the study (for example, with 
+## \ref geomBuilder.geomBuilder.PutToFolder() "addToStudy()" function)
+## BEFORE moving it into any existing folder.
+## - \ref geomBuilder.geomBuilder.PutToFolder() "PutToFolder()" function
+## does not change physical position of geometry object in the study tree,
+## it only affects on the representation of the data tree.
+## - It is impossible to publish geometry object using any folder as father.
