The attributes of feature objects depend on the type of feature selected (point, line, or polygon) and the coverage to which it belongs. Many coverages are polygonal only (i.e. land use, soil, area property) and so the only kind of feature object that has attributes are the polygons. Other coverages, like cross sections or time computation arcs only have attributes for the lines. When selecting the Attributes command in the Feature Objects menu, the attributes dialog of the currently selected feature object will appear. A user can also invoke the attributes dialog by double clicking on the desire feature object.

See the coverages listing to read more about the kinds of attributes that feature objects have for each coverage type.
