Question

overwrite existing attribute


I have a .dxf with points and lines within different layers and blocks. For one layer of data, I need to delete the attribute value within the block and insert in it the geometric value z. Which transformer is best to use?

Hi @lola,

You can use the ElevationExtractor transformer to do this. Please set the Elevation Attribute parameter in the transformer to the attribute you want to insert the Z into. This will overwrite the previous value.

Thank you for answering. i used it but it doesnt solve the problem.perhaps because it is value inside the block.
