\b Filters allow picking only the mesh elements satisfying to a
specific condition or a set of conditions. Filters can be used to create
-or edit mesh groups, remove elements from the mesh object, control
+or edit mesh groups, remove elements from the mesh, control
mesh quality by different parameters, etc.
-Several criteria can be combined together by using logical operators \a
-AND and \a OR. In addition, applied filter criterion can be reverted
-using logical operator \a NOT.

-Some filtering criteria use the functionality of \ref quality_page "mesh quality controls"
-to filter mesh nodes / elements by specific characteristic (Area, Length, etc).

The functinality of mesh filters is available in both GUI and TUI
modes:
-- In GUI, filters are available in some dialog boxes via
-"Set Filters" button, clicking on which opens the dialog box

- In Python scripts, filters can be used to choose only some mesh
entities (nodes or elements) for the operations, which require the
list of entities as input parameter (create/modify group, remove
nodes/elements, etc) and for the operations, which accept objects
