FME 2020: The “GeometryFilter” tool fails to detect objects of “circle” type in AutoCAD,

 

I couldn’t figure out how to filter objects of “circle” type in AutoCAD. The “GeometryFilter” tool fails to catch them.

 

Then how to filter the CAD circles?

Circles will be filtered by the "Ellipse" filter in the — a circle being a regular ellipse. You can confirm this for yourself by inspecting the data in Visual Preview / Data Inspector and, after selecting a circle, checking the value of fme_type in the Feature Information window
