 \n <b>Additional Hypotheses</b> can be applied as a supplement to the
 main hypotheses, introducing additional concepts to mesh creation.
 
-To define an <b>Additional Hypothesis</b> simply select it in
-<b>Create Mesh</b> menu. These hypotheses are actually changes in the
-rules of mesh creation and as such don't possess adjustable values.
+An <b>Additional Hypothesis</b> can be defined in the same way as any
+main hypothesis in \ref create_mesh_anchor "Create Mesh" or 
+\ref constructing_submeshes_page "Create Sub-Mesh" dialog.
+
+The following additional hypothesis are available:
+<ul> 
+<li>\ref propagation_anchor "Propagation of 1D Hypothesis on opposite edges" 
+  and \ref propagofdistribution_anchor "Propagation of Node Distribution on Opposite Edges"
+  hypotheses are useful for creation of quadrangle and hexahedral
+  meshes.</li>
+<li>\ref viscous_layers_anchor "Viscous Layers" and 
+  \ref viscous_layers_anchor "Viscous Layers 2D"
+  hypotheses allow creation of layers of highly stretched
+  elements near mesh boundary, which is beneficial for high quality
+  viscous computations.</li>
+<li>\ref quadratic_mesh_anchor "Quadratic Mesh" hypothesis allows
+  generation of second order meshes.</li>

+<b>Propagation of 1D Hypothesis on opposite edges</b> allows to mesh

+Thus you define a sub-mesh on the edge where you define 1D meshing
+parameters and the \b Propagation hypothesis. These local meshing
+parameters will be propagated via opposite sides of quadrangles to the
+whole geometry, and this propagation stops at an edge with other local
+meshing parameters.
 
-Quadratic Mesh hypothesis allows to build a quadratic mesh (whose
-edges are not straight but curved lines and can be defined by three
-points: first, middle and last instead of an ordinary two).
