Capturing Arrowhead Direction

Hi,

 

I'm doing a CAD to GIS  transformation of a telecommunication exchange and i'm looking to capture the arrowhead direction represented by the CAD arrows(they come across in FME as "autocad_block_name" ARROW), but when I filter them they come across as small line segments at the ends of the cable. In the end I need to be able to specify the number and location of arrowheads on a given piece of cable. If you have any ideas or need any additional information please let me know. Thanks.

Hi,

 

 

If you need to find the angle of the line to rotate the arrow heads, the AzimuthCalculator (from the FME Store) might be of interest to you.
