Hi @giskis, I don't think there is any way to clip a point cloud with the FeatureReader. Consider using the Clipper transformer after reading the LAS dataset.

Yes, you can create an object via the Creator (think of a bounding box) and use it as an initiator, just make sure you set the Spatial Filter correctly (intersect).

Hope this helps.

Unfortunately this is not the case, problably since its considered as one feature

Ok, thanks! Its to bad because the functionality is there when using a real reader in the parameter "Search Envelope"..
