Hello

 

As stated in the subject line, the Feature Caching icons can be seen in the "Main" tab but not showing in the "Custom Transformer" Tab at all. However the features are cached. So I think they are just missing.

Hello @sameer​, thanks for posting! I am unsure its possible to do partial runs within a custom transformer. Custom transformers will only retain caches if the custom transformer tab is open when the main workspace is run.

On a more positive note, it looks like there is an existing FME Idea to: Allow partial runs inside custom transformers. Perhaps you can upvote the idea and add a comment explaining why you'd like to see this functionality added to FME Form. Let me know if you have any related questions! Happy to help, Kailin.
