/*! \page creating_groups_page Creating groups \n In MESH you can create a group of elements of a certain type. The contents of the group can be defined in different ways. To create a group, in the \b Mesh menu select Create Group item (also available in the context menu of the mesh).
To create a group of any type you should define the following: SALOME Platform distinguishes between the three Group types: Standalone Group, Group on Geometry and Group on Filter. \anchor standalone_group

"Standalone Group"

Standalone Group contains a list of mesh elements, which you can define in the following ways: In the manual edition mode you can \image html creategroup.png For example, to create a new group containing all faces of an existing group and some other faces selected in the viewer: Please note that the new group does not have references to the source group. It contains only the list of face IDs. So if the source group is changed, the new one is not updated accordingly. \image html image130.gif

In this picture the brown cells belong to the group defined by the criterion Taper > 0.

"Group on Geometry"

To create a group on geometry check Group on geometry in the \b Group \b type field. The group on geometry contains the elements of a certain type generated on the selected geometrical object. Group contents are dynamically updated if the mesh is modified.
To define a group, select in the Objet Browser or in the 3D viewer a geometrical object from which the elements will be taken. After confirmation of the operation a new group of mesh elements will be created. \image html a-creategroup.png \image html image132.gif

"Group on Filter"

To create a group on filter check Group on filter in the Group type field. The group on filter contains the elements of a certain type satisfying the defined filter. Group contents are dynamically updated if the mesh is modified.
To define a group, click the Set filter button and define criteria of the filter in the opened dialog. After confirmation of the operation a new group of mesh elements will be created. See more about filters on the \ref selection_filter_library_page "Selection filter library" page. \image html creategroup_on_filter.png See Also a sample TUI Script of a \ref tui_create_group_on_filter "Create a Group on Filter" operation. */
