.. _CreatePropertyDialog:

Create Property Dialog
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

This dialog is opened when you try to create a new property definition, for example from the :ref:`PropertyGroupsPanel`
or from the :ref:`FormPanel` when the selected asset is a class or node shape.

.. note::
   In most cases where this documentation talks about *property definitions*, it actually means (SHACL)
   *property shapes*.
   We further distinguish between *Attributes* (datatype properties) and *Relationships* (object properties).
