Salome provides a vast specter of mesh modification and transformation operations, giving the possibility to:
-* :ref:`adding_nodes_and_elements_page` mesh elements from nodes to polyhedrons at an arbitrary place in the mesh.
-* :ref:`adding_quadratic_elements_page` mesh elements from quadratic segments to quadratic hexahedrons at an arbitrary place in the mesh.
-* :ref:`removing_nodes_and_elements_page` any existin" mesh elements and nodes.
-* :ref:`translation_page` in the indicated direction the mesh or some of its elements.
-* :ref:`rotation_page` by the indicated axis and angle the mesh or some of its elements.
-* :ref:`scale_page` the mesh or some of its elements.
-* :ref:`symmetry_page` the mesh through a point, a vector or a plane of symmetry.
+* :ref:`Add <adding_nodes_and_elements_page>` mesh elements from nodes to polyhedrons at an arbitrary place in the mesh.
