Hi all,

 

 

I am wondering how it is possible to clip all layers contained in a single DWG file with a single clipper? Now, I use a clipper for each layer, but it is a real pain to create. I am looking for a more convenient way to do this.

 

 

Hope you can help

 

 

Best Regards

Yes, route all the input layers into a single clipper, and then on the output side, route back into a FeatureTypeFilter to split back into teh original layers.

 

 

Or...use Feature Type Fanout on your output feature type to have them split back out but only as they are written out.

Hi Asherk,

 

 

I think you can send the features of all layers to a single Clipper simultaneously. Where's a problem?

OK, thanks for your answers. But what is the easy way to connect tens of input features to a single transformer?
