dimension.
\b 1D group allows defining the size of 1D elements in either of two ways:
-- <b>Number of Segments</b> has the same sense as \ref
-number_of_segments_anchor "Number of segments" hypothesis with
-equidistant distribution.
-- <b>Local Length</b> has the same sense as \ref
-average_length_anchor "Local Length" hypothesis.
+- <b>Number of Segments</b> allows specifying number of segments, that
+will split each edge, with equidistant distribution.
+- <b>Local Length</b> can be applied for meshing of edges
+composing geometrical object. Definition of this hypothesis
+consists of setting required \b length of segments.
\b 2D group allows defining the size of 2D elements
-- <b>Length from edges</b> if checked in, acts like \ref
-length_from_edges_anchor "Length from Edges" hypothesis, else
-- <b>Max. Element Area</b> defines the maximum element area like \ref
-max_element_area_anchor "Max Element Area" hypothesis.
+- <b>Length from edges</b> if checked in, hypothesis forces building of
+2D mesh segments having a length calculated as an average edge length
+for a given wire, else
+- <b>Max. Element Area</b> specifies expected maximum element area for
+each 2d element.
- <b>Allow Quadrangles</b> - allows to use quadrangle elements in a
triangle 2D mesh. This checkbox is not present in Netgen 3D simple parameters
because currently building a tetrahedral mesh with quadrangle faces is
\b 3D groups allows defining the size of 3D elements.
- <b>Length from faces</b> if checked in, the area of sides of
volumic elements will be equal to an average area of 2D elements, else
-- <b>Max. Element Volume</b> defines the maximum element volume like
-\ref max_element_volume_hypo_page "Max Element Volume"
-hypothesis.
+- <b>Max. Element Volume</b> specifies expected maximum element volume
+of each 3d element.

parameters. The actual mesh can be more or less dense than
