FME 2022 Build 22337 - WIN64 - TimeWindower does not accept Attribute name with a space


Badge +11

I've been using the TimeWindower for the first time and could not get it to work like expected. Fiddling around I tried changing the name of the attribute to remove the orignal <space> in the name. And rest assured it now worked just as expected.

Definitely something odd going on there, I can't quite reproduce what you're seeing independently, but I can confirm that when there's a space in the output attribute name something fishy goes down. In my case I replaced the second _ with a space so the attribute would be called _window id. However, in the table view it was shown as <missing> and in the feature information panel there was an attribute _window
