perhaps there's an easy solution for this:
Is there a way to convert dataset of points to lines? The lines need only to be a few metres long, and the orientation is not of interest at first. Something of a PointToLine transformer...?
Kind regards
Thomas
look at the PointConnector or the VertexCreator.
David
The PointConnector did the trick. The distance between the points can be adjusted in the Offsetter.
Kind regards

Another way.
If you are going to create line segments whose start node is the original point and end node should be offsetted from the point, the VertexCreator (Mode: Addd Point) can also be used effectively, as David mentioned first.
Assuming that the offset amounts are x = 1.0, y = 1.0:
@X/YValue function extracts the value of the first x/y coordinate of the feature.
FYI.

Works like a charm. Just one transformer is of course more efficient.
Kind regards

where is the answer? I cant see it?

No worries, not a fan of that particular functionality either...

On the offchance do you know how I could convert these 4 simple points into a polygon?

Sort of thing I've tried is above image:

The easiest is proably to chain 4 VertexCreators one after another (one per vertex). Configure the first VertexCreator to use mode "Replace with point", the following with "Add point". Adding points to a point geometry will automatically convert it to a polyline. Finally, add a LineCloser to close the line and convert to a polygon.
