+
+The *Data Transfer* tool transfers several types of data from one mesh to another.
+Data types include vertex groups, UV maps, vertex colors, custom normals...
+Transfer works by generating a mapping between source mesh's elements (vertices, edges, etc.)
+and destination ones, either on a one-to-one basis, or mapping several source elements
+to a single destination one by interpolated mapping.
+
+Transfers data layer(s) from active to selected meshes.
+
+Freeze Operator
+ Prevent changes to settings to re-run the operator.
+ This is useful if you are editing several settings at once with heavy geometry.
+Data Type
+ Which data to transfer.

+
+ Data types.
+
+Create Data
+ Add data layers on destination meshes if needed.
+Vertex Mapping
+ Method used to map source vertices to destination ones.
+ Because the options change depending on the *Data Type*
+ options are explained in `Vertex Mapping`_ below.
+
+
+Vertex Mapping
+==============
+
+Topology
+--------
+
+The simplest option, expects both meshes to have identical number of elements, and match them by order (indices).
+Useful e.g. between meshes that were identical copies, and got deformed differently.
+
+
+One-To-One Mappings
+-------------------
+
+Those always select only one source element for each destination one, often based on shortest distance.
+
+Vertices
+ Nearest Vertex
+ Uses source's nearest vertex.
+
+ Nearest Edge Vertex
+ Uses source's nearest vertex of source's nearest edge.
+
+ Nearest Face Vertex
+ Uses source's nearest vertex of source's nearest face.
+
+Edges
+ Nearest Vertices
+ Uses source's edge which vertices are nearest from destination edge's vertices.
+
+ Nearest Edge
+ Uses source's nearest edge (using edge's midpoints).
+ Nearest Face Edge
+ Uses source's nearest edge of source's nearest face (using edge's midpoints).
+Face Corners
+ A face corner is not a real element by itself, it's some kind of split vertex attached to a specific face.
+ Hence both vertex (location) and face (normal, ...) aspects are used to match them together.
+
+ Nearest Corner and Best Matching Normal
+ Uses source's corner having the most similar *split* normal with destination one,
