With the shape attributes the properties of the shape edges and markings used for the pattern can be displayed and edited.
The Shape attributes dialog box is called up with the function in the menu.

For the markings only the tab is provided.
In the , and tabs, module groups for various knitting modes are available.
If a module group other than the one selectable from the list field is to be allocated, then this is possible with Drag & Drop. The module group must be dragged from the to the desired knitting mode. This module group is only used for this pattern, and is therefore no longer available for a new pattern.
Note that when a new change is made to the module allocation for this knitting mode, the module group allocated with Drag & Drop disappears from the selection.
A shape can also be allocated a module or a module group with Drag & Drop. If the fabric is generated with this shape, then these modules or module groups are also available in the shape attributes for this pattern.
If the module group is also to be available for other patterns, it must be moved to the corresponding directory in Module Explorer (see the respective description of the list field on the relevant tab).
Modules, and not module groups, are used on the , and tabs. The modules allocated to the various knitting modes in the 
display field can be displayed on the tabs, and the allocations can be changed. This is carried out in the same manner as with module groups.
A module can also be dragged from the Module toolbar to the knitting mode with Drag & Drop.
The shape attributes are automatically copied to this dialog box from the shape when the shape is generated from a cutting shape. In this case the file name of the cutting shape and the directory in which it is saved are also displayed.
You can cancel selection of the rows with the Esc key.
In the section, which shape edge the attributes are displayed and which attribute group is allocated to this edge are displayed.
Analogous to this the section for markings is called .
