Hi
I have two points inside a polygon and want to split the polygon in two based on the location of the points.
So far, I have created a line between the two points in order to find the centre point.
I want to create a new line, which runs through the centre point and are orthogonal with the line I created between the two original points. Then I can split the polygon with the new line.
Can anyone help me with this?
Hi @stihe, a possible way is:
1. Counter on lines (to make ID of them)
2. CenterPointReplacer on lines - this will convert lines to points,
3. CoordinateExtractor on points this will create _x,_y coordinates for rotation of lines
4. FeatureMerger: Requestor are lines (connection from Counter), supplier are points (connection from CoordinateExtractor), merge by ID. This will fill lines with attributes (_x,_y) from points
5. Rotator, angle=90, X Origin = _x coordinate, Y Origin = _y coordinate. This will rotate lines by 90 degrees based on midpoint
6. Scaler, deliberately scale line by 5-6 (or 100) so you can cut polygon
7. Clipper, clip polygon with its line (optionally using Group by parameter)
Cheers
Thanks, Takashi!
It works like a charm.

Thanks, zzupljanin. I wasn't aware of the Scaler. It could be useful.
