I want to calculate a buffer around a point using the geometry picker in fme server. Can I use the geometry picker to select/draw a point instead of a polygon or rectangle? :)

Hi @llgis​ ,

 

What version of FME Server are you using? If you open your workspace in FME Workbench, you should be able to edit the User Parameter- Geometry Picker to enable Point Geometry type. In your current screenshot there is no option for Point type, however once you change the user parameter and republish to FME Server, you should see the marker option to select a point on the map.

Hope this helps!

Can you make multiple pinpoints using the Geometry Picker in one request and bring back the results relating to those points? Server 2022.2

Hi @Tim Warfe​ ,

 

Unfortunately not, but if you want to upvote the idea of multiple features in the Geometry Picker that would help the enhancement.

Thank you, Richard. I've voted for that feature idea. :)
