Dear Users,

 

I am trying to save a single polygon as a dxf file with a given file name out an array of polygons.

My Array is 28 rows by 350 columns, this makes 9800 polygons.

 

Rows are numbered +14 to -14. they are divided by a centre line, north of this line numbers are positive, south of this line numbers are negative.

Columns are labelled Alphabetically, i.e.: A, B, C ... Y, Z, AA, AB, AC ... AY, AZ, BA, BB, BC and so on until ML.

 

My goal is to save each polygon in a separate dxf file. the name of the file should correspond with the "coordinate" within the array, i.e. "AA_+01" , "BO_-13" , "ML_+11".

 

I am completely new to the FME environment and I ahve no idea where to start this task. I do believe that this action is relatively straight-forward for an experienced user.

I am grateful for any help regarding this task.

 

Kind regards,

Till

In the Navigator you can set a Fanout on the writer, this allows you to specify parts of the output filename from attributes.
