Bufferer fails due to invalid geometry type but Geometry validator shows no failures

I am trying to do a -75 puffer on a polygon but due to the problem in the title I can´t get any further. Does anyone have any tips to make the bufferer work?

Hi @robertdbuckley, a possible reason is that the source polygon was too small against the negative buffer amount. Make sure if the rejected polygon can be shrunk without any distortion by the negative buffer amount.

If the polygon is too narrow to allow a negative buffer, is there no workaround?

No, there is no workaround, as far as I know.

 

If you want to transform a long-narrow polygon to a line, try using the CenterLineReplacer.
