\n Compound Mesh is a combination of several meshes. All elements and
groups present in input meshes are present in the compound
-mesh. Neither geometry nor hypotheses of initial meshes are used by
-the compound mesh. No link between input meshes and a compound mesh is
-supported, so that modification of an input mesh does not lead to
-update of the compound mesh.
+mesh. However, it does not use geometry or hypotheses of the initial meshes.
+The links between the input meshes and the compound mesh are not
+supported, consequently the modification of an input mesh does not lead to
+the update of the compound mesh.
<em>To Build a compound mesh:</em>
<ul>
<li>\b Name - allows selecting the name of the resulting \b Compound mesh.</li>
<li><b>Meshes, sub-meshes, groups</b> - allows selecting the meshes,
- sub-meshes and groups which will be concatenated. They can be
+ sub-meshes and groups to be concatenated. They can be
chosen in the Object Browser while holding \b Ctrl button.</li>
<li><b>Processing identical groups</b> - allows selecting the method
of processing the namesake groups existing in the input meshes.
They can be either <ul>
- <li>\b United - all elements of Group1 of Mesh_1 and Group1 of Mesh_2
- become the elements of Group1 of the Compound_Mesh, or</li>
- <li>\b Renamed - Group1 of Mesh_1 becomes Group1_1 and Group1 of Mesh_2
- becomes Group1_2.</li>
+ <li>\b United - all elements of \em Group1 of \em Mesh_1 and \em
+ Group1 of \em Mesh_2 become the elements of \em Group1 of the
+ \em Compound_Mesh, or</li>
+ <li>\b Renamed - \em Group1 of \em Mesh_1 becomes \em Group1_1
+ and \em Group1 of \em Mesh_2 becomes \em Group1_2.</li>
</ul>
