Even though the help said it was for line features I tried the Duplicate Coordinate remover(Compare Z=Yes, Remove Duplicate Points=Yes). The offending element was sent out the "Repaired" port but subsequent testing with the Geometry Validator set to Valid still detected an error.
The info dialog box in microstation shows 6 vertices in the original polygon. The coordinate listing in the FME inspector window shows 8.
I manually removed the duplicate vertices in the DGN file. The info dialog box now showed the desired value of 4. I then ran it through the Geometry Validator again only to get the same error, Error 9, Too few points. However this time the inspector lists only 4 vertices.
I then bypassed the Duplicate Coordinate Remover and then straight to the Geometry Validator obtaining the same results. A 4 vertices polygon with an Error 9, Too Few Points.
I'm running FME 2012 SP2 Build 12238 Win 64
Can someone help explain what is going on here?
Thanks,
Russell
