Hello all,

 

I have an AutoCAD drawing that has two features on it. One is the bearing information and the other called derivation.

 

 

I am trying to create a new polygon feature that defines the bounding box of all features in the DWG that has the two labels above as attribiutes in the polygon layer.

Currently I am using a combination of bounding box accumulator and attribute creator but I just end up with three records in the output polygon layer. One that is the bounding box, one for the bearing attribute and one for the derivation attribute.

 

 

 

Is there a way to just end up with the one bounding box feature which has the two attributes?

@deanhowell2009 you can use a string searcher to extract the value of the bearing and derivation using this regex ([A-Z])\\w+\\:\\s\\K.*$ this will allow you to create a new attribute for each point text string. Then use pointonarea overlayer and merge attributes and choose Only Use Incoming.
