No: the definition of sets of elements (e.g. for boundary conditions) is
done thanks to the 'Physical' entity mechanism (see e.g. 'ex01.geo').
The post-processing menu permits to visualize computed results (3D
scalar or vector fields), and is completely independent from the mesh
generator (try 'gmsh ex01 view01.pos' in the demo directory).
