\n Construction of a mesh consists of:
<ul>
<li>Selecting a geometrical object for meshing</li>
-<li>Applying \ref basic_meshing_algos_page "meshing algorithms" and
-\ref about_hypo_page "hypotheses" which will be used at computation of
+<li>Applying \subpage basic_meshing_algos_page "meshing algorithms" and
+\subpage about_hypo_page "hypotheses" which will be used at computation of
this mesh.</li>
</ul>
<li>In the \b Mesh menu select <b>Create Mesh</b> or click <em>"Create
Mesh"</em> button in the toolbar.

The following dialog box will appear:
it is "Mesh_1". Then select the object you wish to mesh in the Object
Browser and click the "Add" button.

Now you can define 1d Algorithm and 1d Hypotheses, which will be
even if their existence is not apparent, for example, a sphere has 4
edges). Click the <em>"Add Hypothesis"</em> button to add a hypothesis.

Click the <em>"Edit Hypothesis"</em> button to define values for the
current hypothesis.

The Mesh Computation information box appears.

After you select the error, <b>Show Subshape</b> button allows

-<b>Publish Subshape</b> button allows importing it in a separate MED
-or UNV file.
+\Note Mesh Computation Information box does not appear if you set
+"Mesh computation/Show a computation result notification" preference
+to the "Never" value. This option gives the possibility to control mesh
+computation reporting. There are the following possibilities: always
+show information box, only if an error occurs or never.
+By default, the information box is always shown after mesh computation operation.
+
+<b>Publish Subshape</b> button publishes the subshape, whose meshing
+failed, in GEOM component as a child of the mesh geometry, which
+allows analyzing the problem geometry and creating a submesh on it in
+order to locally tune hypotheses.
<b>NOTE</b> It is possible to define a 1D or a 2D mesh in a
python script and then use such submeshes in the construction of a 3D
