Hi everybody I desperately need some help!! Here is my problem... So far I've been able to generate a bunch of different networks from my water pipes. I've also been able to use a fanout to extract them all to multiple PDF files, based on their network ID. Now, I'm simply trying to add some PNG images (North arrow, logo, etc.) on each PDF files, without any success?! At this point I've tried many things, but I'm now running out of ideas...As suggested on another thread (https://knowledge.safe.com/questions/2403/adding-a-logo-to-a-pdf-when-using-fanout.html) I was under the impression that by using a Cloner to get as many images as I had networks, then by using the PDFPageFormater to add the images to each PDF files or a RasterGeoreferencer to specify where I want the images to be located on the page, I would be able to achieve that but I couldn't figure out how... And speaking of the RasterGeoreferencer, I didn't find out how to use page units instead of rea
Hi all,I am trying to import AutoCAD .dwg files into Smallworld 5. However, the .dwg files have no specified coordinate systems or coordinates. The solution used before was to convert .dwg to .shp and geoference in ESRI ArcMap based on superficial info such as the street name in the .dwg. But we are trying to simplify and speed up the workflow by converting from .dwg to Smallworld 5.1.3 directly using FME. Does anyone have any idea at all if this is possible?
I`m trying to open a xml file with the xml reader, but I`m getting a XML parser error. Attached is the sample xml file. Who can help me?
Hi,I have a Workspace that Read two ( 2 ) files Polygons from Shapefile and generate with Success in ElasticSearch, but in Point geometry:My question is: How can i respect the geometry from my Polygons and write polygons in ElasticSearch?Attached the log file and Workspace template ( .fmwt ). - Thanks,Danilo
Is the FME Work Bench or Quick Translator able to translate ESRI shapefile to a Model Space AutoCAD format? If so, what is required within the shapefile?
I have a folder full of unzip (.shp) mixed shape files Points, Lines, and Polys. Can I read in only the points somehow?? If not can anyone recommend a way to restrict to schema to only that of the point shapes, which I have found two different ones so far?
Hi, I am facing an issue with converting GeoJSON data of building surfaces, directly to Cesium 3D Tiles. where the output is incomplete. A lot of the surfaces are missing.I was recommended to do an intermediate step of converting to CityGML i.e. GeoJSON >> CityGML >> Cesium 3DTiles. And this works fine, except that the output tiles.json does not contain the (maximum and minimum) values of the attributes, which I can generate in the former direct conversion method. So here are my questions: 1- Why does the direct method (GeoJSON >> Cesium 3D Tiles) generate incomplete buildings? 2- Is there a way to edit the parameters in the conversion from GeoJSON to CityGML to Cesium 3DTiles, where I can still end up with the max and min values in my tile.json? 3- My GeoJSON are exported from my PostgreSQL database, so initially I start my data as database tables! Is there a method to connect FME to my PostgreSQL database and get a direct conversion to Cesium 3DTiles? Thanks,

Hi,I am trying to export sql data into an excel report template. for example: I need to pass a particular attribute to the cell A24. Any pointers?Thanks so much
In Microstation there is an attribute called "View Dependent" It has a toggle to either be dependent or independent. Is there a way to set the view dependencies during translation? Right now it seems to always translate as independent.
Hi,I am using FME 2017.1.0 (Build-17539) 64 bit on windows 10 64 bit.I am unable to use GEODATABASE_FILE writer, when i am trying, i am getting the following error message:The "Esri Geodatabase (File Geodb ArcObjects)" format is unavailable because it has unmet dependencies. Please check that FME and your installed, licensed ArcGIS are both 32 bit OR both 64 bit. Then contact http://www.safe.com/support if the problem persists.I have installed ArcGIS Pro as well on the same system. (Screenshot attached).Please help me with this issue.
Hi I am trying to write from one feature class, three separate tables to one file geodatabase but only the last table is saved. I do not know how to keep all three tables in the database. I am fairly new to fme. I am using FME 2015. I have tried with Format Parameters-Feature Operations, Update and Insert but both with same results.
we want to save data in one excel document but with multiples sheets, each one will have a specific group of featuresplease sheet the attached Image
I'm not getting the full geometry data after converting from shapefile to tde, as I did before, only getting a single row for each polygon in the input file, not the granular, ordered, list of geometry points.
Hi,I Would like to read a directory with 76 LandXML with one alignment each.Replacing the current name of each Alignment name with the basename file.and Place all the result in one LandXML or separately- I used the StringReplacer and replace the feature Name for the basename.Its working fine on the Inspectorbut cannot exporting the landxml file.I try to export all LandXML in one file and export all LandXML in basename alignement file..But having problem with LandXML exporter.Do you know how i can merge it ? Thx!
According to the Elastic documentation: "The 'nested' type is a specialised version of the 'object' datatype that allows arrays of objects to be indexed and queried independently of each other." Nested objects allow you to filter on multiple fields within the same objects in arrays.Is it possible to get the ElasticSearch writer to write the properties as "type : nested", as shown here:PUT /my_index{ "mappings": { "blogpost": { "properties": { "comments": { "type": "nested", "properties": { "name": { "type": "string" }, "comment": { "type": "string" }, "age": { "type": "short" }, "stars": { "type": "short" }, "date": { "type": "date" } } } } } }}
Hello ,we have more than 300 Geotiff image in a folder we need to pick the right one that fit a polygon we have in shapefile , is there any way we could do that with FMEThanks
Hello,I have a shapefile that consists of roof, walls and ground in a buildings model. Each surface has it's own ID ('UUID_BYGGN') assigned to it together with building part ('MSLINK2'). I have a workspace where I read in all the features and sort the surface based on attribute ('IGDS_LEV_N') which tells if it's a roof, wall or ground. After this I assign the attributes 'gml_id' and 'gml_parent_id' to each surface but something is wrong in the workspace. I get error message: CityGML Writer: Found a cycle. The ids of the elements which created this path were `GML_01861c27-7df2-4021-bd4b-300c3b496991,GML_01861c27-7df2-4021-bd4b-300c3b496991_1,GML_01861c27-7df2-4021-bd4b-300c3b496991'. CityGML Writer: While determining the CityGML element heirarchy (based on the gml_id and gml_parent_id attributes) a cycle was detected. Cyclic features can't be serialized into a CityGML Document. A fatal error has occurred. Check the logfile above f
I have created a custom transformer for clipping using lastools. My input readers are LAS file and the polygon shape file. When I run the translation, the LAS data is read but my polygon reader is not initiated. Hence when running the command line tool, the polygon file is not loaded and I run into an error. I disabled the LAS reader to check if my shapefile reader is working fine. I get the same error this time but because the LAS is not loaded. (Obviously!) The point is that there is nothing wrong with the reader.So, my question is how to ensure that both the readers are read at the same time when I run the translation so the my custom transformer can get both the input files for its command line argument?
how do you keep the original colour of my dxf file when I want to conver it into a 3D pdf or a .obj file?It converts them all in grey.Thanks,
Hi, We are trying to distribute FME Workbench through Microsoft Virtualization and for that we would like to know how FME detects that GPSBabel is installed.

I converted Autocad dwg to KML but I am having issues with attribute blocks. In KML file text in the block is separated into 3 entities with each one having a placemarker which I want to get rid of and show only plain text with proper attributes. Also I do not want to show kml_xxx for each poliline.CAD file, workflow and KML file attached.Any help would be much appreciated
Hi all, I need to convert a couple of hundred pages in SharePoint to MS Word format. During the conversion process (aspx to docx) I need to perform following steps: 1. Read metadata from the page 2. Read the text from a Content Editor webpart while maintaining text formatting 3. Read the page Version History 4. Create a Word file and add the metadata that was copied from the page 5. Add the formatted text from the Content Editor to the new file 6. Add the version history to the new file It would be interesting to know if anyone has done any of the procedures above. I think that steps 1 and 4 are quite so straightforward and I expect challenges in steps 5 and 6. Best regards, Halil Radogoshi
