Little help with Geometry Editor?

in Technical Help (nuts n bolts)

I'm trying to take the next step in Daz.  Trying to customize and create my own meshes.  I've gotten as far as discovering the Geometry Editor tool.  There I've hit a wall.  I can't find any decent online tutorials on how to use it, nor can I find any kind of manual on the Daz support page.  Some simple explanations of what each of the menu choices do would be a huge help.

Any suggestions?

    You can't model within Daz Studio. All there is is general shapes that you can add to a scene. You need a modeling app to make your own meshes.

    The Geometry Editor tools allows you to "Assign polygons" as "Face Groups", "Surfaces", "Regions" and "Selection sets". It helps you when rigging/weight mapping a figure or when assigning Shaders to certain surfaces (like, a different shader for the skin and different shader for the eyes).

    DAZ has pretty much no modelling ability - it can rig/weight map figures though.

    Finally found what I was looking for.  Winterbrose has some excellent tutorials on his YouTube channel.  Stuff I've not seen anyone else do.  This is the one I was looking for:
