5 In Mesh module it is possible to \subpage creating_groups_page "create groups of mesh elements":
6 nodes, edges, faces or volumes:
8 <li> by selecting the elements of the specified kind by their IDs or
9 directly on the presentation in the VTK viewer - <b>Standalone group</b> tab of <b>Create group</b>
11 <li> by creating a group of elements of the selected type from all
12 such elements of the chosen geometrical object - <b>Group on
13 geometry</b> tab of <b>Create group</b> dialog.</li>
15 <li> by creating a group including all types of elements from an
16 existing geometrical object - using subpage create_groups_from_geometry_page "Create Groups from Geometry" dialog.</li>
18 <li> by creating several groups of elements (nodes,
19 edges, faces and volumes) from the chosen submesh - using <b>Mesh -> Construct
20 Group</b> Menu item. In this case groups of elements are created
23 <li> by creating groups of entities from existing groups of superior
24 dimensions - using subpage group_of_underlying_elements_page "Create Group of Underlying Elements"
30 The created groups can be later:
33 <li>\subpage editing_groups_page "Edited"</li>
34 <li>\subpage using_operations_on_groups_page "Subjected to Boolean operations", or</li>
35 <li>\subpage deleting_groups_page "Deleted"</li>
38 An important tool, providing filters for creation of \b Standalone
39 groups is \subpage selection_filter_library_page</li>.
