Hi All,

 

 

I have an ESRI SDE and a Geodatabase with polygons points and tables. Adding a reader with Merge Feature Type ticked seems to only allow "geodb_polygon" geometries. Seemingly no chance to add points or tables.

 

Can I have multi Allowed Geometries and a Merged feature Type?

Hi,

 

 

in my small text scenario I read from a GDB. Inside are Point and Line features.

 

First I say 'Add Reader' and then I use 'Single Merged Feature Type'.

 

When I look at the Feature Type properties I see that only Polyline geometries are allowed (but I also have Point features that should get read to). I think this is what you observed.

 

 

In my case I did the following:

 

1. go to the Advanced Parameter in the navigator 'Feature Types to Read'

 

2. check all the feature types

 

 

3. use a FeatureTypeFilter to seperate the feature types 

 

 

In my case I can split the feature types and they have the correct geometry.

 

 

I hope this works in your case as well,

 

best regards,

 

Stefan
