Technical Modules

Módulo técnico

A Módulo técnico is a knitting element that is entered into the pattern by the technical processing according to specific rules.
Technical modules only contain technical rows and cannot be drawn-in manually into the pattern.

A Módulo técnico generally 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 module can be found in the properties of the knitting element under Tipo de elemento de tricotagem . You can define and modify the Subtipo do elemento de tricotagem but not the specification of the knitting element type.
