Dear FME community.I would like to loop a list of hierarchy for keep ID like that :Do you know how can I do that ?This is the list example :-) Thanks.

HelloI have a shape with lines and one attribute with elevation (NEAU) and an other attribut with classe (RANG).Between a line and the nearest line it's necessary to create a TIN or raster starting for each line (IDT) from rank 1 to rank n + 1...And after I create a raster from the TIN.I used a 3d Forcer and TIN Generator but i dont know how to loop on the class for the same line. Thank you

This is the test code I have written to call FME workbench from java. IFMESession createSession = COM.safe.fmeobjects.FMEObjects.createSession(); IFMEWorkspaceRunner createWorkspaceRunner = createSession.createWorkspaceRunner(); createWorkspaceRunner.run("C:\\\\Users\\\\shahg\\\\Desktop\\\\TEST.fmw");   but it is throwing this exception Loaded module 'fmeprompter' from file 'fmeprompter.dll'Precondition failed at stfconf.cpp:1489. Expression: instance_ != nullptr  Could you please help? I am able to call same workbench from python without any exception.

If you hadn't heard, the new iPhone 7 launches later this week with one very obvious feature removed: the headphone socket!So, as a fun challenge, what do you think the FME equivalent would be? i.e. what part of FME seems very important, but you could imagine being removed if we were bold enough?For example, I know @aaronkoning thinks we should remove the Navigator window in Workbench. The Navigator! I know. It's crazy talk. But Aaron thinks we could move everything onto the canvas and perhaps he is right...?So what do you think? Reputation points to the best (and funniest) answers. MarkPS: We aren't going to jump into action and do what you say, it's just fun to speculate. Because even if you can do something, doesn't mean you should.

Hi There, In my fme workspace, I am reading from a SQL Server database. After few changes, I am writing to a SQL Server spatial database. I want to implement a check to see if the same number of records are written as the source and not sure of the best way to accomplish that. This is to check if there were any records missed during to any error. If that's the case, then I want to skip writing to the database. Thanks Jay

I wonder if safe could tell if FME Desktop 2019 will support the new Python 3.7?

Hi. I have multiple connections to my shapefile output.I want the attribute from one connection that has a value of columns Latitude and Longitude as 0 and 0 to be written at last.I have already tried using FeatureHolder but, the output is just usual.Any solutions for controlling the flow of features in the writer?

On our server we use FME Server 2013 SP3 (Build 13528 - linux-x64). We also use FME Desktop to make our workbenches. A colleague told me that I need to use the same version of FME Desktop if I want the workbench to work without problems. So I think I need FME Desktop 2013 SP3. However, I cannot find this version on the FME Download site, and I read that I need to contact support. Is this the right version for me, and if so, where can I download the installer?  Thanks in advance!

Hi,I have an Excel reader in my workspace that have 2 attributes (CurrentName and NewName). The value of "CurrentName" shows a list of attribute names in the another reader that already are exist in my work space and the value of "NewName" shows a list of attribute names that must be create in the workspace. I want to create new attributes that their name comes from "NewName" value and the value of new attributes comes from the another attribute that the name of it is similar to "CurrentName" value , for example: I have this Excel file: and add this file to my FME workspace as a dataset (reader1). In my Workspace I have another reader (reader2) that has "id" and "technology" attributes. So I want to create "NAME" and "MODEL" attributes in reader2 with the exact value of "id" attribute for the value of "NAME" attribute and the value of "technology" attribute for the value of &q

Since I upgraded to 2018.0 nothing has been redirecting to the data inspector. I have to write everything and then inspect it, which can be inconvenient at times. Is there something I need to turn on?Thanks

Hello,I have a folder which contains many sdf files with different "last modified date" and file names. In my FME script, i'm only interested to READ the latest sdf file (1 file). May I ask how to select that file?thank you.

Hi, I have a road network(polygon) from where I extracted the center line. But, since there are donuts and holes in between the areas, it is not getting possible to extract the center line on a medial axis using CenterLineReplacer, so I am using the straight skeleton mode. But, it has too many short lines connecting the trunk line. I have tried using topology builder and list element counter to find the junction nodes to remove the nodes having just 1 junction. But, since there are multiple short lines connected, it is still not possible.Is there a way to do it?

Hi Experts, I am working with FME 2018.0. I have a set of roads as per the traffic congestion while red being the most, green being medium and blue being least congested. I have to extract the roads as per the color as below:Out of red, green, blue- red. Only red is extracted out of red, green and blue.Out of green, blue- green. Only green is extracted out of green and blue.blue as it is.I have tried using GeometryValidator, Intersector, but seems none of these are working. Any suggestions, advices

Hello, I hope to back up all the data from my reader feature class into a CSV file, in case I would need to look up the data in the future. I used the FeatureReader with the parameter as shown in the picture, but the result CSV has each of my reader record increased exponentially. Not sure what happen in my case..

I'm accessing an API using FME and trying to fetch records by passing certain ids as a parameter to the API . For example the API is,https://developers.onemap.sg/commonapi/elastic/omsearch?searchVal=1&returnGeom;=Y&getAddrDetails;=YIn the above API, I need to keep on increment the value of searchVal=1 from 1 to 100 and then pass each to httpcaller to return the response.I'm able to do this using python caller and get the response using for loop concept. But, I want to do this without python and use any other transformers which does the trick for me.Any guidance would be appreciated.Thanks!

Good afternoon,Is there a new AVF writer that displays the updated attributes? Also, is there a way to edit the AVF writer attributes? Updating the attributes in the writer is grayed out and I am unable to update the writer. Thanks!David

Good morning,I was wondering what the best practice is for transferring attributes, not geometry, from one feature to another? For instance, I want the ID number from one feature to be placed in another feature, to show correlation, but keep the original geometry.Thank you!David

Hi all,I am having a problem when using the data inspector..Often when scrolling through results data will just 'drop out' - never to reappear/refresh.I have to manuall hit the refresh button an often this will not rectify 'lost area'.Please see attached image.Note the rows are blank yet when you look at the window on the right side of the screen you can see the data values actually exist in the table.Thanks for viewing my question.Any ideas on where to trouble shoot this issue would be much appreciated.ThanksLenny in Australia

I have been attempting to export a mosaic into CADRG (.GN), on a set of maps that I stitched together and created one single global GeoTiff. Each time I run the CADRG writer the export completes but automatically projects in Polar Sterographic projection and has had a blank band through the center of the chart. Ideally I would like this export to be in Geo Lat Long WGS84. Does anyone know hoe to solve these issues?

Anyone else having this issue? I open FME 2018.0 18295 32-bit and my stored database connections can't be loaded. When I open the FME Options/Database Connections, I get: "Error Retrieving Connections". The Translation log window is also missing. When I reopen it, I get the below error.-----------The Java Virtual Machine could not be started.

I have two set of polygons A and B. After passing by dissolver transformer, it doesn't dissolve all the polygons. Instead it only dssolves in a random fashion. This results in missing of the polygons in dissolved polygon shape.Polygon A:Polygon B:After dissolving A, B. I get this output. Clearly it is missing few of the polygons in dissolved shape.Also shown below - Highlighting the dissolved in dotted(with coordinates) and missing the other polys with no dots.Used parameters:Any thoughts please?Tagging in @takashi, @erik_jan, @TiaAtSafe, @Mark2AtSafe, @RylanAtSafe

I'm running out of disk space for the default location of the feature store C:\\Users\\user \\AppData\\Local\\Temp\\. I'd like to change the location of the feature store to a different hard drive. I've change the environmental variable of the TEMP folder but this didn't update the location of the feature store?

Hi FME'ers,In an hour or so we're starting the webinar on Choosing the Right Transformer (24-May, 10am PDT). Several users already submitted scenarios where they are facing a challenge finding the right transformer, and Dale, Iris, and I will try and live-build a workspace to solve their issue.At the same time, we had a few scenarios that we won't have time to cover in full, and wanted to throw them out for your suggestions. So, if you think you know what transformers to use in the following scenarios, or if you have a brief scenario that we can try and demonstrate online, please let us know in the comments below.We'll do our best to work this content into the webinar to make it really live (and quite exciting for us presenters!) - and if you have any comments on the webinar or suggestions for the challenges we are showing, do also let us know.CheersMarkScenario 1: Given this feed of live cycle data from TFL (Transport for London), which transformers would you suggest t
