Hi,

I have a smart solid model of a building made in Bentley. I would like to drop solid and take the top view drawing out. Solid dissolver is not working. Any help is greatly appreciated

Hi @pkrishnamohan​ , have you tried using the SurfaceFootPrinter transformer?

Try to use Deaggregator to get individual solids, followed by GeometryCoercer set to fme_composite_surface and Deaggregator again to split into individual surfaces.

Now you can begin to test which surface is on top (determine which surfaces overlap each other, get z min and max for each one) and keep only the top one.

For more in depth ideas please provide a sample of your smart solid.
