I have not been able to see why I am getting a featuredataset name on my point output after a PointOnAreaOverlay that has a polygon featureclass inside a featuredataset. The output point featureclass is hidden inside the featuredataset.

 

 

I have started again with a new workbench 2014 SP3 which has not fixed it.

 

I note that when I add the Reader I add the fgb path and when i get the table list it never shows the featuredataset. Since I am not using anything of the source polygons that should not matter, but it is a bit strange.

 

 

The output is not a fanout, just a static name.

 

I end up with the output named featuredataset/featureclass

Hi,

 

 

be aware that the xOnxOverlayer transformers will transfer attributes both ways. This includes the transfer of attributes that haven't been exposed in the Workbench GUI but will still exist during run-time, e.g. format attributes.

 

 

One such format attribute is "geodb_feature_dataset", which controls whether the output is written into a feature dataset.

 

 

Have a look here for a description of how to get rid of it and thereby avoid writing to a feature dataset: http://safecommunity.force.com/CommunityAnswers?id=906a0000000d4m9AAA
