+5Hi,
I need help how to use Fanout and not sure if this is a bug or not.
Using Workbench 2024.1.1
Am I doing something wrong or need some tweak work ?

Hi
Are you trying to read a dwg with all the layers and then write out the geometry types or layers to another file format, like shapefile or features in a filegeodatabase? Fan out can be used on the writer in the screen captures below: (I used a an autocad writer but does not have to be)
The variable attribute is used to “Fanout” the file names and thus separate the content into different files. Hope that helps!!
+5Never mind. I got it to work however, if you see something different than I do then please post it here…
I had to type in a new filename with an extension to make it work…
For example
