FME Form

I have some 3D Data with existing appearances - I just want to make a few of them brighter. I can use the AppearanceExtractor to get the unique appearances, and I can see that with the ApprearanceSetter I can apply one based on a trait I can also see that it's possible to just update an existing appearance. I just can't figure out how to just update it based on the appearance name as this doesn't seem to be a trait For some reason I can't figure out how to do this - has anyone achieved this?

Hello! I am trying to create a service area from polygons. I need to create an area that can be achieved during xx minutes with average speed xx km/hour. Is this possible with FME Workbench? (Or do I need to transform the polygon -type into point-type etc.)? I hope you understoor the question and am happy to inform some more.

Apologies for asking what I expect is going to be a very basic question. However I would like to read all files of a particular format (eg dxf) in a folder, apply a coordinate reprojection to them and then output them to a different folder. To read the files from a particular folder I believe I would use the Directory and File Pathnames Reader? To apply the reprojection transformation I would use the csmapreprojector, however to write the many files (eg dxf) out to a different folder I am not 100% of the methodology (and or writer) for that.Many thanks in advance

Hello, Im working with this WMS:https://service.pdok.nl/kadaster/netcapaciteit/wms/v1_0? When I access it with a feature reader then it gives me these layers here:And when ran it just gives me a white area cover of where the data is in the world (right place and all, just no symbols). I am accessing the same data in ArcGIS Pro and there I can query "IndicatiefVerzorgingsgebied" based on symbology and see that it has some 8 sublayers: So my questions are:How can I query and expose these sublayers in FME and make them appear as something else than a white area coverage? And bonuspoints if there are any ideas how to expose the feature specific attribute values as well, such as station, netbeheerder, status, totalecap... and so forth

nID='1' nOperTime='2022-07-31 23:51:56' szUserName='default' EventType='Save Config' Remarks='Saved -P2P- config.IP:Local LoginUsername:default Group Name:user' I want to split this into nID, nOperTime, szUserName and EventType I've tried using the KeyValueAttributeCreator transformer to do this with:- Key,Value Delimiter: =Key,Value Separator: <a single space> After this runs I see thousands of columns created with name 1,2,3,4... which appear to be the value of nID rather than the key. I wonder if the issue is the quotes and if so is there a solution that will see quoted fields as a single value?

I am trying to find a way to get the data from IFC file and import it to postGIS data. I tried to do it using a reader of IFC and a writer of postGIS, but then instead of saving 3D data - I get only 2D. When I tried changing the geometry type to geometryZ - I get "Error geometry type parsing" I tried to convert first to GML, and from GML to save to postGIS, but that also didn't work. I would appreciate some help hereThanks,Elyran  

 FME Desktop Build 22304: Moving attribute fields up and down through the “attribute manager” is slow, I couldn’t figure out why moving attribute fields up and down is slow    Is this by design?

I am fairly new to FME and am having a tremendous issue with attempting to transpose columns into rows. I have tried the other fixes to transposing rows to columns but to no avail. Here is the sample sheet I am trying to transpose. And under the inspector it tabulates into thisThe issue is that I am wanting to combine the rows of A and C into columns and having rows B and ROM status falling underneath these columns stated above. Columns E, F, and G are not needed. I have tried using the transposer transformer as well as attribute pivoter with an aggregator but does not work. Any help would be greatly appreciated, and will answer anything I did not clarify.

Hello,I made an FME script to automate modeling when importing new coordinates.I have two column plots "NUM_PARC" 409 and DP139 which fail to create the polyline correctly. Some points with the same numbering are taken from parcels outside the zone.I can't create a link with my area "MOVD_CAD_TPR_PRF_S"(NUMERO:2) and my final result.Can someone help me?Thanks 

When running workspaces pre 2022 in FME 2022.'GeometryFilter' sorts out Points, Areas and <Unfiltered>, when I send them into GeometryFilter_4 the <unfiltered> features exit through the Area-port. 

On June 24th I downloaded the version for Desktop and Server 2022.0.0.1 Build 22339. I update my system with those products, and validate the functionality of the workspaces as well as the configuration of the server. It looks like everything is ready to be moved to production environment.I give notice to IT that the artifacts can be moved to production and they require FME Server 2022.0.0.1 Build 22339. Now I receive a notice from IT that the mentioned version does not appear in the downloads list of FME. Now I have to make a whole verification with a new version. 

Hello!Is it possible to get the new file name created (or modified or deleted) by the directory watch and send it into an email via subscriptions?If not, how can I send the new file name detected?Thanks.

HelloI'm looking to keep my geometry from my old state. (polygon with arc of circle or building with inner courtyard) I tried with the GeometryExtractor and GeometryReplacer transformers, but my new state changes by a few centimeters and I would like to adapt my geometry from the old state to my new coordinates.

Hello FME enthusiasts, I am slowly getting better within FME – but now and then I simply get stuck. In my example, I load a simple .xlsx File with a borehole identifier (BID) and a complementing link to its online available drilling profile (URL). The goal is to extract the profile for each BID via ImageFetcher and to write it into a single .pdf File via the fanout option. Works great so far, but I just cannot figure out how to provide the BID as additional information (here: headline directly in each .pdf) via the PDFPageFormatter. Whatever I do, only the fetched raster image is written as .pdf File. This is more a general question, as more information could be added to the .pdf File (e. g. date and time of image extraction). Please see my attached FME template file. I am quite sure the solution is simple, but I need some help/hints. Thank you in advance! Kind RegardsAlexander

See below my Workspace to generate a CSV file from a SQL View:The CSV looks good except I need to put double quotes (“ “) for certain text strings. For example under Ledger Type column, AA should be ‘AA’.Please let me know which of the String Function(s) in AttributeManager I should use to put double quotes around text strings (or other Transformer you deem more efficient):Also, how can I replace all the comma separators in the CSV file with pipes character ’|’ instead.Many thanks!

Hi All,Question regarding using Esri Template Geodatabase and Change Detection. Or anytime using Templates in writers really. When using a Esri Template Geodatabase and selecting "Overwrite Existing Geodatabase" does this process actually Delete Existing Geodatabase and Replace with a New Geodatabase that includes whatever magical newly transformed output was created up to that point in the workspace?Example Scenario: When detecting changes between two Geodatabases a set of "changes" is produced and then we write that out to an existing geodatabase with same schema. To set this up we tell the writer the destination gdb and also identify a Template Geodatabase and select "overwrite existing geodatabase". In this case does the write delete the gdb and reassemble with existing data and applied changes from source?or SourceDB>>UPDATES>>[CreateNEWDestinationDB]>>ApplyUPDATEStoNEWDestinationDB>>[DeleteExistingDestinationDB]I know that is

Surveyors are collecting data on-site and taking photos as attachments unto an ARCGIS Feature Layer. Depending on the infrastructure category, I need to display these survey results across multiple ARCGIS Feature Layers. Is this possible without saving the attachments locally first?

Hello ! I use a SystemCaller in order to copy files.This files come from 2 differents folders and have to be copied from to different ways (command lines are differents) and - in addition- I want the user to choose if he wants to "copy/Y" or "Ycopy" the files.So I have 2 types of command lines from 2 publics parameters but they have the same values "Copie SANS sous-dossiers" and "Copie AVEC sous dossiers":AndSo when the user run the workbench he has 2 parameters to choose but they are named the same way:It is possible to link these 2 parameters and give the user only one parameter to choose ? Thank you !

I think the current messaging set up for each case could do with some improvements as well that would optimize both the user's and experts' experience and increase overall efficiency. An example would be an easily found "Reply" button at the top of messages sent from FME experts. I honestly think that FME has one of the best user support systems in the bizz and I usually don't submit too many suggestion cases for other software because of the headaches their systems usually cause. However, because of how responsive/active your team is, and how much they've helped me personally with many issues in the past while being a great experience almost every time, anywhere I can help improve an already great system, I'm game. :)

Hello sir / madam, So I have two attribute "_zmax" and "ROOFLEVEL". So I want to test if "_zmax" value is within 5m of "ROOFLEVEL". If yes, then "Pass". If not, then "Fail".  So if "_zmax" is 10m, then acceptable value should be 5-15m.Might I ask how to do that?Should I use attribute manager transformer? Thank you in advance.  

Oracle has been supporting table and column names up to 1000 chars since 19c. ArcGIS desktop 10.7.1 and Pro 2.8, and later, also support long entity names for Oracle. But the latest FME 2022.0 Oracle SDE writer still limit user attributes in the Feature Type panel to be 30 chars. This puts quite a big limitation on our table design. Hope FME can accommodate long Oracle entity names soon.

Hello. I need to calculate the distance in metres from a set of points to a singlehotspot location, but have it calculate the shortest distance along a line roadnetwork (to the hotspot). I have three datasets: Table 1: several 'home' locations (points)Table 2: one hotspot 'destination' location (point) Table 3: a road network (lines) The road network layer does not contains things like no left turn, one-way, pathways, best avoided roads, dead-ends etc. etc. That's absolutely fine, as I just need a crude distance along the network.  Also, the home locations may or may not be on the network, so I may need to introduce a tolerance for where a point doesn’t snap to a network line. I need the shortest distance added to table 1 as a new column in metres. I’ve looked at ShortestPathFinder and LengthToPointCalculator but they don’t seem appropriate. Many thanks, 

Hello I have an *.ifc file and wanted to read in FME and delete records .  How to read the file what is correct format ?
