Hello, I have a table like this:ID - value x - value y1 - 5 - 302 - 9 - 403 - 8 - 704 - 76 - 89I want to replace the value x of ID 4 by the value x of ID 1. So that my table would be like this:ID - value x - value y1 - 5 - 302 - 9 - 403 - 8- 704 - 5 - 89What transformer should I use ?

Hi, I currently administer an ArcSDE database and have most things automated with Python and task scheduling. This works well but it is far from transparent and simple, and I feel I could use FME to automate the entire process. I'm thinking that while some of the process could be handled with the inbuilt transformers I would definitely still need to utilise ArcPy for most tasks and so would rely heavily on the PythonCaller transformer.  Is this an avenue I should explore, or is this best dealt with another way? Has any one else successfully done this, and if so are there any examples available? Thanks in advance. Nathan

I am missing the chopped indicator attribute under the parameters for transformer chopper, why is that? and instead I get parameter aggregate or reject,

I have a workflow, using FME, that outputs an annotation layer in a file geodatabase.At first I create some pre-defined Annotation Classes in an empty geodatabase that will be used to style Water and Road text features etc. I note down the AnnotationClassID of each class.I then run the workflow which assigns the AnnotationClassID noted earlier to each feature based on a feature class attribute from the source data. This workflow also sets the FontSize, Rotation and Vertical and Horizontal Alignments of the Annotation feature.This runs fine and I can see the results in ArcMap as expected. However, I was wondering if it is possible to tweak the styles of this output Annotation layer?When I try editing one feature and changing its AnnotationClassID, called "SymbolID" in the attribute table, from a Water to a Road text style of the pre-defined Annotation Classes, the FontSize automatically reduces from a large number, 93543 (set from the workflow above), to 8, drastically reducin

Hi I need to calculate the angle between lines in a network (red angle in the picture) I mean the angle between the side road and the main road ThxFrancesco

Hi I would like to make boundries around my pointclouds.That way I can see if all my pointclouds cover an area.  I only know hullaccumulator, but that only makes a bounding box. See the picture below. I want the red boundry and not the blue one that hullaccumulator makes.I'm trying the pointcloudcoerser before the hullaccumulator, but I don't know if that works and it takes sooooo looong... Is there a better way? 

I have a problem with setting up an ordered attribute list in a published paramter. I haven't found a hint in any documentation, how to type in the list in the "edit configuration" window. Is there any documentation I did not find or does it follow the semantics of a language, like e.g. python?

i have question regarding to the anchored snapper i have used points as input to Anchors and Lines to Candidates .but i found i have output on collapsed port around 209 point .collapsed port output :what i understood the smallest lines less than tolerance converts to points ,if i understood correct . but it means also that may be i lost some lines id in collapsed port bcs they converted to point so i will not be able to use them again as lines in my nework .or what should i do to use collapsed port again in my network so i have all ids again ? Do we have a method that i could use anchored snapper without getting any collapsed at output ? the lines that has already converted to points ,how could i use the output of collapsed port again in my network ,bcs i need the all id in my network .and i am not sure if i lost some id's in collapsed port or should i continue with output snapped and untoched lines and just ignore collapsed port .    with these parameters i got around 209 output f

I'm trying to update a couple of non-geometrical attribute values of a feature service. These values come from a HTTP request that is executed in a Python caller. These fields are now empty and I want to update these with every workbench run. But when I run the workbench I receive the following message: "ArcGIS Online Feature Service Writer: Writing features for layer/table 'X', with 9 inserts, 0 updates, and 0 deletes ArcGIS Online Feature Service Writer: 'addResults' error for a feature in 'X'. The error code from the server was '1000' and the message was: '24126: Point coordinates cannot be infinite or not a number (NaN).'" Does anyone know how I can fix this so I can first succesfully fill the empty columns and subsequently update these with every workbench run?

Hi there I try to create a list from a daterange . The range always differs. Work_No, Startdate, Enddate (ex. 1234, 20201230, 20210105)should lead to a list DaysOfWork{}.DayOfWork20201230202012312021010120210102202101032021010420210105 thanks, any ideas appreciated 

I have a shapefile containing points distributed every 5 meters in a regular mesh of 100 rows x 100 columns. I have to create a shapefile with points of this regular mesh located every 10 meters, or 20 meters, ... (always a number multiple of 5) to get a sparse mesh from the original. I there any FME Transformer that can help to do this task?Any suggestion or idea would be really appreciated. Thank you !  

HiI'm hoping someone can help me with a query.I have a SQL Server view that i am opening in FME; this contains both commercial and residential addresses The view has 2 reference columns, one contains a Council Tax reference, the other a Business Rates reference Some of the residential records do not have a Council Tax reference as they are not live properties; the reference column is NULL for these I have used a NullAttributeMapper to change the NULL value to New Build, but all records with a NULL value are being changed, including the Commercial records Is there a way of using the NullAttributeMapper to query 2 columns in the table so only NULL records that are residential. Or is there another transformer that would be more suitable?thanksSimon

Hello,I am new to FME. I want to load multiple shapefiles into Oracle spatial tables. I just have a problem with the extents. I would like to get them from shapefiles and use them as parameter in the Oracle writer but I don't know how to do it.I know the BoundsExtractor transformer but I don't know how to store xmin, xmax, ymin and ymax values as parameters, even more with multiple shapefiles.Thanks for your help!

I have a 100 ft line that curves and then turns back into a straight line. How can I use FME to only gather the straight line after the curve only. I basically want to cut out the curve and only grab the line after the curve.

Hello,I'm working on a French address table. A column contains a string with the abbreviated street type and street name, e.g. "AV DES CHAMPS-ELYSEES". I divided it and I built a list with its elements: AV, DES, CHAMPS-ELYSEESI now need to know if the first item in the list is a correct street type. For that, I have to compare it with about 200 values of a reference file, also stored in a list: AV, BD, CHE, IMP...I think I have to use PythonCaller but I don't know how to go about it. Can you help me?Regards,Nicolas

We are working on images projection. We are not using geographic projection but local projection. We have equirectangular projection (cylindric) images and we need to manage a conic projection of these images. Here our parameters :  Cylindric : height = 160 m and diameter = 60 mConic : minimum radius = 40 and maximum radius = 60 m Do you know if there are some solutions with FME tools to manage our needs ? Best Regards,

I have a GeoTIFF file (real32) with one band(0)Like to extract just the value 0.4 from it.But whatever I try, nothing works out.It's so simple, but I can't see it.... With the RasterExpressionEvaluator I use this expression:@if(A[0]==0.4,0.4,0)The only result I get is : 0Probably because the band only contains RGB values whereas the z-value 0.4 is interpreted? But what then, is the best way to extract this?

Hi,I need some help with a specific fanout scenario. I already found some articles on the topic but unfortunately I cannot create the desired results. Here is what I want to to:  I have multiple input File GDBs, all with the same schema. In each GDB I want to manipulate one specific feature class and then write everything to new GDBs that have the same folder names and schemas as the inputs.  I know how to fetch multiple GDBs using a wildcard and I am also able to keep the input (feature class) schema using a dynamic writer but I don't know how to fan out the Folders. How do I fetch the input folder names (e.g. Folder1.gdb, Folder2.gdb) and use them for the fanout? Thank you for your help!
