I have a floor plan in AutoCAD. I care about two layers (Room_No and Room_Name). In Room_Name, names that span more than one line (usually word) are different features in the same layer. For example Exam Room will be two different items on the layer. I need to group these two items (words) so I can eventually concatenate them to be Exam Room. Based on my experience scraping data from other sources says to group them by their location using x and y coordinates. I can then do the same thing to add in number from the Roon_No layer.

What is the right transformer to use for this? I've tried neighborhood aggregator but it output a list of coordinates based on the text value and not the other way around.

Hi @bradcadams​,

It sounds like you should have a look at the NeighborFinder in candidates only mode and ensure merge attributes is ticked.

You should look to limit the maximum distance so you don't pick up room text which isn't related and might need some filtering for features which are single line only.
