How do I accomplish this in FME 2012 given the AttributeSetter has been replaced with the AttributeCreator? I tried manually typing in the parameter name into AttributeCreator Attribute Name field but no luck. I feel like I am missing something obvious and hopefully some one can fill me in.
Thanks,

Click the row in the AttributeCreator in the 'Value' column. Try a double click if you don't see anything change. An elipsys button and a drop down button appear to the right, click the drop down and choose "Link to Parameter".
I didn't explain it very well because I am trying to set the value of the attribute passed as a parameter not set an attribute to the value of passed parameter.
Example:
Custom transformer has published parameter: Parm_Column_Name.
The custom transformer is called with the attribute ColumnA passed as the parameter Parm_Column_Name.
Within the custom transformer I want to set the value of ColumnA. As I mentioned earlier I previously have done this using the AttributeSetter.
I hope that makes it clearer.

I could use a PythonCaller and use the setAttribute function but previously I was able to use an AttributeSetter since I could point the attrbute name to be set to a parameter. This is not possible with an AttributeCreator from what I can see.

i.e. You hve a public parameter in you custom transformer and you want to find what that attribute is?
