I can use the Pointonareaoverlayer to find all of my points that fall within an area, but i can not see a way to obtain a shape file of those same points that are not enclosed by an area. Anyone have any suggestions

Hi

The PointOnAreaOverlayer introduces an attribute "_overlaps". Use a Tester to check if _overlaps = 0, that means that the point isn't inside any of the polygons that entered the Area port and you can send it to your Shape file writer.

See also the documentation, where it is pretty well explained.

If you only want to filter point outside the test areas, you might want to switch to the SpatialFilter transformer.
