Technical Design Modules

Modules techniques de conception

A Module technique de conception is a knitting element that is entered into the pattern by the technical processing or through specific dialog boxes according to specified processing rules.

Modules techniques de conception contain design rows besides the technical rows, that are entered in the pattern.
This way the module is not only inserted between the pattern rows, but overwrites a corresponding area in the pattern.

Modules techniques de conception cannot be drawn-in manually into the pattern.

A Module technique de conception consists of tiles that are applied in specific situations.

Each tile consists of a search area and a processing area.
The search area contains the specifications to be searched for in the pattern.
The processing area contains the structure that is to be applied in the pattern.

The clear identification of a technical design module can be found in the properties of the knitting element under Type d'élément de tricotage . You can define and modify the Sous-type d'élément de tricotage but not the specification of the knitting element type.
