We want to use FME server in order to copie/backup files , Application , database and store it in safe area , at the oment the task is done manualy , each time system admin will have to go trough all those files , and backup the to the specific location

I used the reader ( directory and path file name ) and writer ( file copy ) to move all file from folder A to folder B, is there a way we could move also the subfolder in A to B and keep, instead of creating a reader for each subfolder is it possible to write it a zip file all this is used to backup data Thanks

Hello, I am looking for an easy way to get the user select the tables that they want to read and translate before the workspace runs. Is there an easy way to set this up using FME transformers or it has to be done resorting to other methods (i.e python scripting with specific postgis drivers) and if so, could I get some help on how to accomplish this? At the moment I have a creator, an SQL executor that extracts all tables from the schema I want the tables to be selected from, how can I convert this list into a parameter and then let the user select the tables they want to be then submitted to the PostGIS (or generic reader maybe) to then work with only that subset of tables?

I am trying to convert Excel file to KML. There is a column RPN# with the project number like RPN-123456 and also hyperlink embedded in it that opens local folder on the server. I have done this before with AutocAD file but I am having issues exposing attribute in Excel file. I attached pictures of the workflow. When I run translation I do not see RPN# in KML file, what am I missing here. Instead the dot representing RPN# shows generic kml_1 or something like that. Thank you very much.

I'm pretty new to FME and could really use some help on this. I am reading OBJ files and writing DWG files. I need to expose two "traits" in the source OBJ to re-use them in the target DWG. But I'm unclear how to access the traits. What I found so far... The two traits in the OBJ file belong to Geometry Type: IFMEMesh. The traits are GeometryTrait(string): 'obj_group' and 'obj_object'. My goal is to read the obj_group to write autocad_layer_name - and read the obj_object to write autocad_block_name. Guidance on accessing the traits will be greatly appreciated! And here's an example OBJ file:

Folks, This may or may not be an FME question so anyone with AutoCAD skills may be able to point me in the right direction. I'm writing Mapinfo to AutoCAD and one of the objects is a polyline. The specified requirement is to set he polyline Format Attribute start_autocad_width and end_autocad_width to a value of 0.25. I have achieved this. However the result in cad is poor. Some polylines show with a width, some polylines show some segments with width. Upon inspection the Autocad object property "Global width" is null. If this is set to 0.25 the issues noted above are resolved. However the "global_autocad_width" is not an available format attribute. I did read this may be a DWG template drawing variable PLINEWID but setting this has zero effect. Any thoughts?

Hi all, I have read that the Excel writer supports colors for font and background. What I can not find is how. I have this scenario: Based on the value of an attribute ("Yes" or "No") I want to color the font (or background) black (if "Yes") and red (if "No"). I would use the Conditional Values in the AttributeCreator, but can not find what to set for the color. Is this possible, and if Yes how. Any help is appreciated. Erik Jan

I want my workbench to automatically create a value in an attribute table depending on the type of polygon it is. For example, if the value in autocad_layer is KVARTERSM_CENTRUM, I want it to automatically classify the attribute as "KC". I have multiple attributes I want to automatically classify. The problem is that when I'm searching for transformers and choosing a layer, only "autocad_layer" is available. Reader must be based on single merged feature type. I attach an image with my workbench. The first choice I made is that I chose the reader dwg and single merger feature type. I will add an image with my choices in parameters. I also have added "autocad_layer" in the "feature attributes" In areabuilder have chosen to use "autocad_layer" in the "group by" option. The rest I have not made any choices in. Then I create writer OGC geopackage and select "feature option: insert", "table action: create if needed" Uses automatic in "attribute defintion" and then creates autocad_layer. I ha

Hi, I have a Problem placing shared cells in a V8 DGN. The Cell i'm trying to place has different x- and y-scale and is rotated. I used the DGNStyler to define the settings.

On the right you see the Shared Cell which Scale and Rotation is wrong So the Library Cell is placed correct, but i have to place Shared Cells Can anybody help me ?

Hi Guys I am looking for a workflow to Create SHP file attributes from an excel spreadsheet. The problem I am having, is I can only see a way to extract column headings as Attributes. How do I take attribute titles from the cells below the column heading. I hope that makes sense.... Basically, I have an Excel document with Standard Asset data that needs to be included in our SHP files according to discipline. So I have used FME to Test for "Subclass" & "Item_Name", which works great, then I want to extract that list in the "Attribute_name" column to SHP attributes. Thanks Martin

Trying to read an ArcGIS Server (10.3) map service. There doesn't appear to be a a dedicated reader for this, unlike the ArcGIS Server feature services. Have also tried the WMS reader, with no luck. I want to ultimately write the output to a file geodatabase. How have other people achieved this work flow?

I get this error for only this scheduler job. All other jobs fine. Insufficient memory available -- error code was 2 - please read the FME Help section 'Adjusting Memory Resources' for workarounds. Nothing much to clean up in /temp folder. How can I make this job run?

I have a number of 16bit RGB raster images which need to be converted to ECW format. The images are displayed perfectly in ArcGIS and have the following attributes. rows and columns: 1506, 2051 No Bands: 3 Format: TIFF Pixel depth: 16 Bit Compression LZW When I load the Tiff in FME 2017 and inspect it, it is rendered black with the following information: rows and columns: 959, 250 BAND 0 (Gray 16) BAND 1 (UINT 16) BAND 2 (UINT16) My translation to ecw fails due to "Unsupported band interpretation 'GRAY16'". How can I resolve this?
