Hello everyone.

 

I know there might be not too many using the DatasmithWriter (since I didn't find any question about it here yet). But I hope maybe someone can help or has an idea.

 

I'm using the DatasmithWriter and got a surface that has a raster placed with the AppearanceSetter. This Raster has an Alpha Value (it's a branch, so everything around is meant to be transparent).

When I write the DatasmithFile it tells me Raster could not be written (nothing more).

When I remove Alpha Band it works, with Alpha it doesn't.

I read Details about Datasmith, it says 32Bit, Alpha8, Int8.

This is all the case for my Raster so im running out of ideas what might be the problem.

Thank you in advance for any hints.

Hello @gisplan​ , would you mind sharing what version/build of FME Desktop you're using? I think there was a bug that sounds similar with the Datasmith Writer (FMEENGINE-72341) that has been resolved in newer builds, which you can find on our downloads page. You should be able to find the fix in FME 2022.0 Beta b22317+

 

Please let me know if that doesn't resolve your issue! Best, Kailin.

Hi Kailin

 

Thank you for your answer!

My built is: Build 21784 - WIN64.

Now i chose to work with simplified trees made with polygons only and give them a color.

But im sure in future this question is coming back and i will try it with the recent FME version.

 

Regards
