Can Attribute Manger Strip leading Zeros from Text field?

I have a workflow that reads a MS Access file and splits two attributes into two separate values each by means of two AttributeSplitter transformers. I then use the AttributeManager transformer to place the 4 new values into 4 new char attributes. I need to strip the leading zeros from two of these fields and was wondering if this could be done in AttributeManager? If not how could it best be done before the AttributeManager (the next step is to use AttributeManager to concatenate these values.

Find the Total Production (total sum) with 40 years of monthly data.

Hey everyone, I'm getting used to FME and needed some help with a task that I wanted to complete. I have an excel sheet that has the total produced oil, water, and gas for a month at a time per column. Each row represents one year of a well. I tried using the doing the StatisiticsCalculator and Im getting the cumulative sum but I just want one final sum for each well. I have production data going back to the 80s so the running cumulative is way to many rows. Does anyone know how I can get the total sum for each well?

CAD translation fails with Error Codes

Hello all,I'm converting CAD data and I'm receiving this error code: Postcondition failed at topology.cpp:1089. Expression: remainingLRP != nullptrI'm thinking that it is caused by bad CAD data. Has anyone seen this error before?Also, I'm just looking at Walls (for the moment), but when I translate the data, doors from the door layer come through. Does anyone know what may be causing this?Thanks, David

FME 2018 Workspace runner crashes

Hi FME'ers,I am working with the new WorkspaceRunner transformer in FME 2018 (Build 18284 - WIN64). I have come across an issue whereby the first FME process always stalls then crashes. For example, if I run 3 processes with 1 workspace each, the first will stall while the other two run to completion then the first will crash.I am writing to ESRI Geodatabase (ArcSDE Geodb) in transaction mode with 5000 features per transaction. Before running I truncate the tables with arcpy so they are not getting locked. Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong?Thank youDavid

2018 inspector takes forever to open, what can I do?

After I've run a workspace with FME 2018, the inspector takes like forever to start. Anything from several minutes to forget-about-it. For compability reasons, I have multiple FME installations at my windows 7 corporate PC (which is a pretty hardcore piece of a machine (32gb ram, ssd, plenty of processing power) - if this machine can't run it, nothing can). No issues so far - except that the 2018 inspector will either give up completely or take minutes to show the data I've piped into it. FME 2017 and older seems to work fine. Unless a lot of other people are complaining, I guess there must be something fishy with my setup. Any ideas welcome.

FME Desktop 2018 won't run translations anymore!

My translations won't run today! They worked fine yesterday. I was using the first release of 2018 (Build #18284). I just upgraded to the latest beta (Build #18445), but that didn't solve it. I'm aware of the issue with ESRI's Geoprocessing patch and ArcGIS Pro, but that has been installed for several months and my models have been working fine during that time. I also checked for the Windows KB patch for the Spectre virus and that has not been installed, so that shouldn't be it either. This is catastrophic for us, and I need help ASAP!

Removing one side of a bounded rectangle in a polyline dataset

Hi everyone,  I'm in the process of creating a dataset that shows the painted lines for parking spaces in a parking lot. I've been using Bounds Splitter and Geometry Coercer to generate a grid of parking spaces along two rows of parking. However, I'd like the individual parking spaces to reflect the actual painted lines on the pavement. That is, instead of having a closed rectangle correspond to a parking space, I'd like to create a polyline dataset where only the three sides of the rectangle that correspond to the actual location of the paint on the pavement appear.For example, I'm interested in removing the portion of the line that is touching the red arrow in the attached screenshot. Any ideas how to remove this portion of the line?Thanks!Jenna

Bookmark content FME 2018

I like to make the titles and other information (bullet points etc) in bookmarks to be bold, of varying colours etc. Is this possible in FME 2018 when creating a new bookmark? It doesn't seem to work for me. I create FME workbenches for a production team to use (many have little to no experience in FME) so I like to comment workbenches quite extensively.

Transformer to switch rotation

Do you need to switch the rotation of your label from arithmetic to geographic or the other way around? You can use the RotationSwitcher I published on the FME Hub.

Terminator Transformer - FMEException

We run the workspace using PERL. We have implemented a conditional check in the workspace for record counts BEFORE we update the table. If that TEST fails, we route to the Terminator transformer.The issue we are having is that Terminator does not set FMEException, thus PERL thinks it was successful.We need to terminate the STREAM of jobs.How do we do that? I do not see anything FME parms related to FMEException.

How does FME Desktop store published parameters that are passwords?

I can't find anything in the documentation about how FME Desktop stores published parameters that are passwords. Are these encrypted? Or does FME desktop store these parameters as clear text behind the password stars? For instance, in the workspace below, I have published parameters that are passwords (I've set the published parameters to password type) How is FME Desktop storing these?

FME 2018: New Run Control Icons

I really like the new run control options, but feel quite strongly about them being in the reverse order. Since data flows from left to right, it feels more intuitive if the first button was "Run To This" and the last one was "Run From This" (as the data then continues to flow towards the right), with the center button remaining "Run Just This". Here's a I think the icons could also be a little clearer too. Reversing the placement will probably help as I find myself constantly hesitating and waiting for the tooltip since I keep picking the wrong option! But I think the bottom part of the green arrow graphic is the most important part and unfortunately it's the smallest and least readable. I'm attaching a of something I feel is more readable.Would love to hear your feedback if you played around with this. Thanks!

Read only those features falling within the Inspector's active view extent

Hi,Do you see a way to have the Inspector read only features falling into the extent of the Inspector's view? So let's say that you are looking at some specific situation with Shape file data in the Inspector but you need to add a layer from a large worldwide PostGIS database in order to get more context. However as this set of data is quite large, you don't want to read all records but ideally only those falling in the active view. There is already a way to add the envelope definition but I don't necessarily want to enter the 4 min/max values for each situation I want to inspect.Thanks!Best regards,Olivier
